Nope.  My own SPARC is just such a machine.  I tried 4.0.3-0pre1v1.  It
locked my box up tight.

My advice?  Don't try it.

(The "fbdev" driver might work, but now I'm a bit gunshy.)

If you have stable as well as unstable (or the XSF repository) in your apt
repository, you should be able to just:

apt-get install xserver-mach64 xserver-common-v3

You'll need to manually point /etc/X11/X to /usr/X11R6/bin/XF86_Mach64.
