I think you forgot -o result.o and -V Volume_Id.

They are all in the list of emulated options (xorriso -as mkisofs -help
man xorrisofs)

A test:

  $ dd if=/dev/zero bs=512 count=2 of=dummy_for_G

  $ dd if=/dev/zero bs=512 count=10 of=dummy_for_core

  $ xorriso -as mkisofs \
      -o test.iso \
      -V 'FAKE_SPARC_64_ISO' \
      -J -joliet-long -cache-inodes -l \
      -G ./dummy_for_G \
      -B '...' \
      --grub2-sparc-core /boot/grub/core.img \
      -graft-points \
      /boot/grub/core.img=./dummy_for_core
  ...

The fact that the file core.img is named as "SPARC GRUB2 path" indicates
that its start LBA was written to the right place in the -G image.
(Numbers shown as "SPARC GRUB2 core".)


Have a nice day :)
