We don't yet ship in Solaris all the headers you need to build Xorg
drivers, but that is also a project in progress for the near future.

Until then you'll need to either grab our OpenSolaris X sources or
a similar set of Xorg sources and build them to get the needed headers.

I wrote these instructions on how to replace the 2.1.0 source with 2.1.1 
in our builds for the person working on the 2.1.1 upgrade [though with
some additional SCCS/TeamWare instructions I've removed from this copy]:

To get our tree with the 2.1.0 sources already in you'll have to
pull the fox-gate from Mercurial since I haven't pushed out tarballs
with it in yet.
