So just to make sure by example:

/usr/lib/sparc-linux/bin/
...
nm
ranlib
ar
as
ld
...
/usr/lib/sparc-linux/include/
...
/usr/lib/sparc-linux/lib/
...
libpthread.a
libresolv.a
librpcsvc.a
librt.a
libutil.a
...

These are the files converted from the Sparc-native packages, as far as
I can tell. There are also symlinks for a few things: 
bin/cpp -> ../../bin/sparc-linux-cpp for example. On my system as
configured right now, that's /usr/bin/sparc-linux-cpp which is just
fine. I don't see why switching to /usr/lib/<target>/ shouldn't work.

I'll give it a whirl with locally-modified packages and see if I run
into any troubles.
