---------------------------------------------------------------------- 
The problem is slightly subtle: SSH/SFTP is actually in 
  libcurl4_feature     CSWlibcurl4-feature  7.21.6,REV=2011.04.29     
409.8 KB
which can be installed as aux-library which is used automatically instead
of the minimal-feature one if installed. However, I just noticed there is a
linkage problem where libcurl-feature.so.4 links to libfbopenssl.so instead
of libfbopenssl.so.0 leading to an unresolvable linkage meaning the feature
lib is not used:
  unstable9s# ldd -r /opt/csw/lib/libcurl-feature.so.4
        libfbopenssl.so =>       /opt/csw/lib/sparcv8/libfbopenssl.so

This can be circumvented by installing the dev package:
  libfbopenssl_dev     CSWlibfbopenssl-dev  0.0.4,REV=2011.07.09        
2.5 KB

After this the feature lib is correctly used:

unstable9s# curl --version
curl 7.21.6 (sparc-sun-solaris2.9) libcurl/7.21.6 OpenSSL/0.9.8r zlib/1.2.5
c-ares/1.7.4 libidn/1.22 libssh2/1.2.7
Protocols: dict file ftp ftps gopher http https imap imaps ldap ldaps pop3
pop3s rtsp scp sftp smtp smtps telnet tftp 
Features: AsynchDNS IDN IPv6 Largefile NTLM SPNEGO SSL libz 

Please use this workaround for now until libcurl4-feature is fixed.
