   Yes, there were two patches, the sparc64-ld.tgz and the
   krb4_buffer_overflow.diff are both applied.  I'm figuring the
   pmax-netboot.diff isn't necessary.
   
   1.5 release source is unpacked into /usr/src; set to /usr/src and
   then 'make include' and 'make depend' and then 'make'
   
   Things go along fine until here:
   
   libc_pic.a(__posix_rename.so): In function `___posix_rename':
   __posix_rename.so(.text+0x1c): relocation truncated to fit: R_SPARC_GOT13 ___cerror


this is caused by /usr/libexec/cpp not defining __ELF__.  this is a known
problem with the sparc64 1.5 toolchain.  (it also is missing defines for
__arch64__, __sparc64__, __NetBSD__, __sparc_v9__ and __sparc__).  the best
fix is really to install one of the toolchains in arch/sparc64/toolchain
(from the FTP server) and use that....
