I see the number of registered sparc porters has dropped since the last time
around and we're now in the red, but I don't think that's because of an
actual change, rather we must have done different accounting.

upstream and downstream, the situation seems unchanged - stuff is generally
working fine, I don't see a particular reason to avoid releasing sparc
wheezy compared to sparc squeeze.

We should probably note that upstream sparc32 is actually fairly revived
with LEON these days, so that one bit of real regression we had a few years
earlier might actually get fixed :)
