No objections here about the remainder of the series, other than that I don't have an

I was thinking about adding support to RISU, but the gcc compile farm sparc machines have
been down for ages, so no way to generate the reference traces.
Update: I have successfully ported RISU to Sparc64, Solaris and Linux. There is a
limitation in that I cannot find how to extract %gsr from the signal frame, which is
unfortunate, but I can work around that for now.
I have added descriptions of VIS1 instructions to RISU, and it turns out we have failures
relative to a Sparc M8. I have not yet analyzed these failures, but it proves the effort
was not wasted. :-)
I'll clean up these patches and post them here when I next get some downtime.
