No, this is not a cross compile. I can build 64-bit apps on sparc32 and
sparc64 from the same compiler. The issue here is that we must support a
64-bit overlay for debian-sparc. That's just way it is going to be. All
64-bit libs will go in /lib64:/usr/lib64 and all packages that support
building for the 64-bit overlay (like glibc and ncurses already do) must
do two builds.
Get over it.
