In addition gcc no longer supports 32bit sparc according to the
architecture qualification notes for Squeeze[1] and Wheezy[2].

  [1] <http://release.debian.org/squeeze/arch_qualify.html#sparc-upstream>
  [2] <http://release.debian.org/wheezy/arch_qualify.html#sparc-upstream>

So it might make sense to drop sparc in any case and add sparc64 if
there are enough people interested.
