AFAIK nobody has tried using 64bit solaris.
I've just got 64bit intel (EMT64) system and installed Debian-AMD64  
on it.  It's certainly not working fully for distributed objects and  
for passing large structures in invocations, but apart from that it  
seems OK so far.  I guess it depends what you want to do with it.
