We're working on Solaris/x86 at the moment, and the vast majority of
that should work on Solaris/sparc if/when a port happens.  A good
deal of Solaris 2.5.1 stuff works at the moment;  I've just recently
returned home from business travel so I can continue working out
why 2.6 libraries/linker fail.

See http://slash.dotat.org/~newton/freebsd-sparc for further info.
Additional developers welcome, of course :-)
