VB 4.3.6 additions for Solaris problems under illumos based XStream Desktop

Hi,
I've been informed recently that the latest 4.3.6 additions contain updated drivers for Solaris 11
that consider also new Xorg 1.13.1 and 1.14.5
Our new beta XStream Desktop distro is based on illumos, features Xorg 1.13.1, and finally
the new additions correctly installs vboxvideo for 1.13.1.
We also have a dev version based on Xorg 1.14.5, and also this installs correctly vboxvideo for 1.14.5.
BUT
problem is both versions don't work correctly.
Once the desktop starts, running cairo-dock in OGL mode, a black box is drawn around the dock area,
while it's usually transparent.
Also, I found errors in the Xorg.0.log about DRI &vboxvideo.
Finally, no XVideo support (xvinfo reveals nothing).
Here is what I find in the Xorg.0.log, if anyone can give suggestions!
