Is there a summary of the open issues somewhere? There are no sun4v PRs open. http://wiki.freebsd.org/FreeBSD/sun4v effectively hasn't been touched since November 2006 and suggests that the only critical issue is lack of serial port support.
There is a better interpretation, which is that the only critical issue is lack of real users for this port, not lack of serial port support :).

Maybe some time should be spent looking at stuff from NetBSD to see whether or not they've solved some already critical porting pieces that FreeBSD lacks in this architecture? -Garrett
