glibc 2.3.2-1 in experimental was accidentally uploaded to unstable for
sparc, so lots of packages got built against that and are therefore

and will start making its way from there.

It does what it says on the tin, but if people aren't using the tag then
that's that. You may find
http://bugs.qa.debian.org/cgi-bin/debian-installer.cgi more useful.
