Thanks! But it doesn't seem to have taken: snapper just did a new run
that still failed, and it still seems to be using -O2.

Yeah, I've got a couple of those myself. But perhaps it'd be sensible
to move to a newer Debian LTS release? Or have they dropped Sparc
support altogether?

(As of this weekend, it seemed to be impossible to find the wheezy sparc
distribution images on-line anymore. Fortunately I still had a download
of the dvd-1 image stashed away, or I would not have been able to recreate
my qemu VM for the purpose. It's going to be very hard for any other PG
hackers to investigate that platform in future.)
