hm, i think it's quite okay to run a 32bit binary on the 64bit sparc64
kernel -- hey, it's a feature ;)

otherwise you're right, that's a pretty awful 'fix'...

take the square root from this Homer J. Simpson quote:

'Mmmmm... 64 slices of American cheese.'

(the story goes on: 64 (munch munch munch)... 63 (munch munch munch)
(cut to much later)
Homer: 2... (munch munch munch) ... 1 (munch munch munch)
Marge: Homer, have you been up all night eating cheese?
Homer: I think I'm blind.)

There are 10 types of people in the world. Those who understand binary
and those who don't.
