What binutils?

This is sympomatic of either a) an assembler that does not correctly
generate R_SPARC_UA32 relocs, or b) a glibc that does not correctly
intepret them.
Since you have glibc 2.2.4 I'd guess the former. Try binutils 2.11.2. (A
more thorough diagnosis can be gotten from "readelf -r" on a failing
executable.)
(And for the record, I think this requirement is clearly stated in
http://gcc.gnu.org/install/specific.html#sparc-*-linux*
though that doc may not have made it into the 3.0.2 release.)
