The Sparc backend has no active maintainer [1].  This unfortunately  
means that if you want bugs fixed, you will have to make the patches  
yourself.  If this is a problem, you might want to pick a different  
solution for whatever project you're tackling.

[1] Actually that's not true.  I'm the maintainer and I'm active, I  
just don't have a sparc machine or time to care about sparc.
