 | >Description:
 | 
 | The following test cases of the sbin/gpt/t_gpt test are failing on
 | sparc, and apparently have been ever since they were added in early
 | December:
 | 
 |   bootable_2part
 |   migrate_disklabel
 |   recover_backup
 | 
 | They are also failing on sparc64, based on martin's test logs.
 | 
 | >How-To-Repeat:
 | 
 | Run the ATF tests on sparc, or inspect the babylon5 test logs:
 | 
 |   http://releng.netbsd.org/b5reports/sparc/build/2015.12.08.01.57.13/test.html#sbin_gpt_t_gpt_bootable_2part
 | 
 | or martin's sparc64 test logs:
 | 
 |   http://www.netbsd.org/~martin/sparc64-atf/426_atf.html#failed-tcs-summary
 
 They probably fail on other archs... They only make sense on the archs
 that support MBR.
