  sparc64 = sparc: the sparc port is interesting insofar as the kernel

  of the old 32-bit sparc hardware for a few years...)
 
 I understand.
 
 So what does the sparc64 buildd do differently than the plain sparc 
 one?

The sparc port has 64bit kernel and 32bit userspace.  The sparc64 port
has 64bit kernel and userspace.

Right. So I rephrase my initial question: Is there a box (or perhaps 
a chroot?) that uses 64bit userspace available? Supposedly similar to 
the one used by the sparc64 buildd?

 the sparc64 buildd *is* the plain sparc buildd.

There must be something different, since the build log on sparc[1] 
says Architecture: sparc: at the very start and the build log on 
sparc64[2] says Architecture: sparc64

[1] 
https://buildd.debian.org/fetch.cgi?pkg=firebird2.5;ver=2.5.0.26054~ReleaseCandidate3.ds2-1;arch=sparc;stamp=1280255179
[2] 
http://buildd.debian-ports.org/fetch.php?pkg=firebird2.5arch=sparc64ver=2.5.0.26054~ReleaseCandidate3.ds2-1stamp=1282831427file=logas=raw

How do I replicate this difference on the porterbox?

Not AFAIK.
