The tarball for 64bit 8.4.3 on Solaris Sparc is missing some ./pgxs/... files I seem to need to build pl/java. they exist in the 32bit version but at least of them, Makefile.global, appears quite build specific.
Yeah, it seemed pretty obvious from the error you were running into in your last message that you'll need to do your own PostgreSQL build here first, then add pl/java on top of that. Binary packages aren't necessarily good at giving you everything needed to build your extensions, and even if it did build I'd be suspicious of it until it passed testing.
You can see more about how the OpenSolaris packages are built at http://src.opensolaris.org/source/xref/sfw/usr/src/cmd/postgres/ ; Makefile.sfw in particular might have clues as to what's going wrong here. There are separate code paths in several places there for 32 vs. 64 bit builds, and you seem to have run into a divergence between the two.
As for mailing lists, you can try http://lists.pgfoundry.org/pipermail/pljava-dev/ for things specific to building it.
