Hello,
I am interseted to build firebird on Sparc too. But with attached patch 
I haven't success. I mean that gcc options -march=ultrasparc  etc. mus 
be completly disabled to property build on SPARC. But this patch don't 
do this for me. I do:

  dpkg-source -x firebird2_1.5.3.4870-12.dsc
dpkg-source: warning: extracting unsigned source package 
(./firebird2_1.5.3.4870-12.dsc)
dpkg-source: extracting firebird2 in firebird2-1.5.3.4870
dpkg-source: unpacking firebird2_1.5.3.4870.orig.tar.gz
dpkg-source: applying ./firebird2_1.5.3.4870-12.diff.gz
patch -p1 < /home/marvin/firebird.patch
But this says something abou reversly patch applied etc.
If I by hand edit
builds/posix/prefix.linux_sparc32




# you may remove it if engine is getting compiled with any other GCC 
version
PROD_FLAGS=-m32  -O3 -DNDEBUG -DLINUX -pipe -MMD -fPIC -Dsparc 

DEV_FLAGS=-ggdb -m32 -DLINUX -DDEBUG_GDS_ALLOC -pipe -MMD -p -fPIC -Wall 
-Wno-switch -Dsparc

Now looks like this. And compilation starts and run.
Any sugestions ?

				Thanks
