Installed dpkg-cross (isn't listed in the FTP site but a package search
brought it up. And the FTP archive doesn't have a source package)
:# dpkg-cross --install sysvinit_2.76-3.deb libc6_2.0.105-2.deb \

MM. binutils-multiarch and dpkg-cross are in slink for Sparc, but are
only in potato for i386. Time to compile, most likely.
I'll try this stuff out and then get back to the lists if I have any
further problems.
But let me make sure I have this one right. I need to compile an
i386-binary gas that will compile for sparc?

Installing binutils-multiarch and compiling a native gas handles this.

Install dpkg-cross and convert the native sparc libc6 and libc6-dev
packages. This will install them into /usr/sparc-linux/{include,lib} for
the cross-compile.

Re: Cross-compiling on Debian systems?
I built a cross-compiler on Intel for SPARC from the binutils and gcc sources, i.e. without using the Debian packages. If you check the debian-sparc archives I think my recipe's in there somewhere. (Otherwise ask me and I can probably find it and e-mail it to you tonight - in about 12 hours.) In general I found the bootstrapping process stopped with an error, but I could install bits by hand and then recontinue the process. Edmund
