Grub will chainload the solaris boot partition just fine. Solaris10 
x86 only really cares about its own partition, indeed only really 
cares about the VTOC just inside the solaris partition which tells it 
how the partition is divided into slices.

Also, Solaris 'dev' now boots directly via grub - grub pulls the 
sunos kernel and modules straight off a UFS partition. (yay).

Anyway, installing S10 should be fine - either before or after 
Fedora.
