The kernel build is self-contained.  It does not use anything in
/usr/include.

What you need to do is build a 64-bit toolchain:

	binutils-2.9.1 with the bugfix or the in-tree version configured
		with --enable-64-bit-bfd

	egcs or post-egcs gcc configured with target=sparc64-*-elf

Then add an /etc/mk.conf that uses those compilers instead of the 32-bit
ones.  gcc will bomb on several files.  They will need to be compiled by
hand without optimization.
