Ick.  I don't know what your problem is.
Similar operations work for me ok.

Some (obvious) questions:
- is your source up to date :)
- is /export/obj/sparc "cleaned out" beforehand?
- do you have any environment variables set which might affect things
  (e.g, BSDSRCDIR, BSDOBJDIR, OBJMACHINE, MAKEOBJDIR,
  MAKEOBJDIRPREFIX, MACHINE, ...) ?

What's the error messages that the building of host-mkdep generates?
