No chance, since compat_netbsd32 on sparc64 does not support threading. Which
kind of brings me to another question: what's the difference between
compat_netbsd32 and the way Solaris executes 32-bit code on 64-bit kernel?

fine-grained SMP + solid threading support + seamless 32-bit applications
support would be the most desireable objectives for NetBSD sparc64 port.

Oh yeah, and UltraSparc III and IV support :-)
