There's very little overlap between those sources and illumos, as only a
few bits of the ON consolidation are included (things like grub that are
GPL licensed for instance).

OpenIndiana already includes most of that code and mirrors it on their
servers - it's too late to worry about that, and since this is the code
covered by Open Source licenses, I don't know why you'd worry about
"tainting" your open source distro that's already covered by those licenses.

(Perhaps you were thinking of something other than the Oracle-released
  open source bits?)
