That's very odd.  Sparc binaries were supposed to be posted, but it appears
that they never made the light of day.  <sigh>

One note on this: Since NetBSD doesn't support Solaris native threads,
you'll need to run this in "green threads" mode.  Some 1.2.2 tarballs do
this by default, but some default to "native threads".  To make sure you're
using green threads, hack the .java_wrapper script to make sure the default
is "green".
