While banging my head against Sun at work yesterday I came
across http://sunsolve.sun.com/sunsolve/patchdiag/, which is a tool
for checking to make sure you have current patches installed.
bart-savagewood, a beta machine, seems to not have the current set of
patches installed.
Attached is the tool's output. It looks like we're missing a lot.

Report Note:
Recommended patches are considered the most important and highly
recommended patches that avoid the most critical system, user, or
security related bugs which have been reported and fixed to date.
A patch not listed on the recommended list does not imply that it
should not be used if needed. Some patches listed in this report
may have certain platform specific or application specific dependencies
and thus may not be applicable to your system. It is important to
carefully review the README file of each patch to fully determine
the applicability of any patch with your system.
