I would join such startup. I am not (yet) an OI/Illumos developer, but 
interested in learning.
Also - I am in need for an additional part time, or even full-time paid 
job (remote though - I am located in Russia).
Thumbs up for the idea of distinct business entity contributing the 
produced security fixes back to OI for inclusion in later releases.
