Maybe comparing the FreeBSD output to the OpenBSD output will help. Also, I can send you a list of the installed binaries, libraries, scripts, and config files. Qemu on qemu has worked for me. This means that anyone with a machine that has the CPU and memory to support a sparc64 guest could install FreeBSD as a virtual sparc64 client/vm.
