Last I heard, OpenSolaris was dead, and thus there isn't going to be a "next version" of it released. Am I missing something?

My mistake. The exact text from the linked announcement is "Our understanding is that next version of Solaris will ship with GRUB 2".

Your original point remains valid though. If Oracle ships GRUB2 with the new code then they are explicitly licensing the ZFS stuff under GPL3.
