Alan, My Intel 'slowness' was never resolved. Also, glxinfo provides a backtrace killing Xorg, although I can't remember which version, getting a bit mixed up here :/
In regards to the new packages, we are building a distro so we just tried to install the packages on there own and the don't install with "failed method" when trying to unzip the contained 7z files.. http://defect.opensolaris.org/bz/show_bug.cgi?id=3582 *still* needs resolving ! Firefox seems to be affected a lot, not sure how it interacts with the X server.. ? Hope this is at all useful feedback.
