Which will (or should) be rejected by mini-dak, as my 2.0.4-11+sparc64.1 is in
unreleased (#885852 hasn't been fixed yet or even acknowledged by anyone). I'd
be surprised if it's the binutils bug, but I guess you could do a rebuild
locally and upload a .2 to unreleased. Having said that if there are unaligned
accesses reported on alpha then those are likely to also happen on sparc64 and
be the critters we're looking for.
