It is a know problem, and the gtk/glib maintainer knows about it.
Basically the sparc packages had to be rebuilt as a binary-only NMU. This
wasn't a problem in the NMU, but in that the binary-all package deps on
the binary-arch packages, were too strict ("= 1.0-1" type deps), which
didn't allow this binary-only NMU to be installed.
He hasn't rebuilt it. It actually needs to be completely rebuilt for all
archs, so that everything has the same version number, or just rebuild the
main one, so that the binary-all packages dep on ${Source-Version} instead
of ${Version}.
