The plan for containers on Solaris, after rejecting injecting libc from the host, was to have users rebuild all containers after OS upgrade.
What containers are you referring to? Because this is definitely not how Zones work on Solaris.
There are two types of Zones in Solaris 11; "Kernel Zones" which run their own independent version of Solaris and "non-global Zones" which are automatically kept at the same version as the host.
Windows has to virtualise containers with an incompatible OS version.
Not as far as I'm aware. Windows Sandboxes don't work that way nor do other technologies I'm aware of. What are you referring to?
