It wasn't supposed to be full compilable code.

See:

Solaris Express Software Developer Collection
    >> Solaris Security for Developers Guide
    >> 9.  Writing User–Level Cryptographic Applications and Providers

http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/doc/819-2145/pkcs-2?a=view

While it doesn't contain the exact key generation example you are 
looking for it does provide the necessary background on how to use PKCS#11.
