Works for me.
Using 
http://www.thinksolaris.com/MB1Xqemu0_6_0_slirp_i386_sunos5.9_local.pkg.gz

See
http://www.thinksolaris.com/java_smc_snapshot0.jpeg and 
http://www.thinksolaris.com/java_smc_snapshot1.jpeg   .

But currently Gnome2 causes QEMU to segfault.
Maybe the guest graphics driver or so. Using my old pkg and some other 
guest config it worked, too. That's why I started the guest into 
failsafe mode for the java / smc demo.
