I have the same combination of hardware (about a year old) and 
everything works fine as 10G with Solaris or Illumos at either end.

 From the OmniOS end:

ixgbe1       Ethernet             up         10000  full      ixgbe1

There's a SmartOS box at the other end:

ixgbe0       Ethernet             up         10000  full      ixgbe0
