there seem to be limitation in # of platforms we can put in
pkgsrc/cross/binutils/Makefile. in fact, i went into some
trouble with it, and added the following comment.
the limitation is in /bin/sh, used by configure script in binutils.

also, it looks that there's some problem in binutils if we enable
32bit and 64bit sparc at the same time:

if someone could do something about these, it would be very nice...
