Hmm, some of the assembly changes probably need to be reverted for 
32bit sparc. The real driver source is in 
xsrc/xfree/xc/programs/Xserver/hw/xfree86/drivers/sunffb

I'd rather have Martin's opinion on this, I know a little sparcv8 but 
almost no sparcv9.

Umm, this module should live somewhere in src/x11/Xserver/hw/xfree86, 
probably needs to be enabled in another Makefile.

Yeah, assumptions like that will be all over the place. Maybe v8plus is 
more like it.

have fun
