Since there's already a v9 libc package, I assume there's no problem
in principle of providing a v7 one, which can surely be built.
I have been providing the glibc debs built without v8 optimizations
and thus usable on v7 for a while now. Check out the wiki page at

If someone is willing to invest serious effort into supporting sparc32
machines (including sparc4c), I suggest to create a project on alioth for
that purpose.
