I don't think Solaris needs very high performance (aka SMP-capable) pf.
People want SMP for pf because they want to push bytes thru a firewall. That sort of application probably isn't important for Solaris anymore. But that's just my conjecture, I don't really follow Solaris much nowadays.
So if ultimate performance isn't absolutely necessary, why not start with the original source, aka OpenBSD?
