Is the a sparc target supposed to work on a sparc64 ?

Did you include the ld-patch which allows you to run old binaries ? It's in
the debian/patches subdir.
I think we should get a 2.0.95 updated libc sometime soon (at least to fix
the header inclusion problem ;-)
I will try to build on my sun4m here. Will you build the 2.0.95 version,
Johnie or should I try to do it ? I will go from the 2.0.95 packaging from
http://master.debian.org/~espy

What's the railroad to me ?
I never go to see
Where it ends.
It fills a few hollows,
And makes banks for the swallows,
It sets the sand a-blowing,
And the blackberries a-growing.
(Henry David Thoreau)
