If it doesn't work now it's not really a regression, is it?  But I'll 
try to
look at it.  I have no suitable hardware, and there doesn't seem to be a
Sparc simulator, so I'll need a substantial amount of help.  I'm going 
to
take this thread private (unless somebody objects; it's not secret, I'm 
just
trying to keep the noise level down).
