oh!  i misunderstood.  i have no idea about running bochs
or qemu _on_ sparc.  i would expect qemu to be better in
2019, though the compile might be tough.  (i recommend
building on a large machine, even 64 bit system running
32 bit userland.)

it might take a while, but i' ll see if qemu builds on the
ss20...
