Oh. Well- I'm hoping for compiler assist here. This is code that lives in
other than NetBSD. So- my question is still: will NetBSD sparc64's
compiler generate __sparc__ as well as __sparcv9__? Or is this just too
broken for NetBSD and I'll figure out a better way to do this? Perhaps I
should- based upon inclusion of some SBus header file that generate a
define- I mean, it's really an optimization to not have to do the swizzle
check for platforms/instances that can't possibly be SBus instances.
