I uploaded this to stable-proposed-updates, sparc binaries should appear
after the next mirror push. There's still time to tweak things before
the point release, so testing reports from sparc X users to
488669@bugs.debian.org are welcome (whether things work or not). Make
sure you have xserver-xorg-video-fbdev installed.
Cheers,
