OK, so something is attaching to the device.  That's good.

Does "rmformat" see it?

I would look for errors in /var/adm/messages.  The driver should be
logging something if it has decided that it doesn't want to talk to that
device.

That same report says that it was fixed in snv_109, which was _way_
before any fork, so the fix would certainly be in OpenIndiana, if it
were related.

I doubt that it is related, given that the PCI IDs are different, even
if the string appears to be the same.
