you are going to need a patched version of the kvm module to be able to run
Solaris 10 amd64 as explained in the Guest Support Status page.
patch is available from :
http://tapir.sajinet.com.pe/gentoo/portage/app-emulation/kvm/files/kvm-57-kernel-longmode.patch

fail-safe runs in 32bit mode and doesn't need the patch.

because of the following bug :
http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1842160&group_id=180599&atid=893831
it has been apparently worked around in OpenSolaris, but the patch from kvm
was reverted because it somehow affected windows 64bit, which I am sure is by
far a more common guest.
