Hi,

the problem on sparc is this:

 *
 * Purpose:		This machine-generated source code contains
 *			information about the various integer and
 *			floating point numeric formats found on this
 *			architecture.  The parameters below should be
 *			checked carefully and errors reported to the
 *			HDF5 maintainer.
 *			
 *			Each of the numeric formats listed below are
 *			printed from most significant bit to least
 *			significant bit even though the actual bytes
 *			might be stored in a different order in
 *			memory.   The integers above each binary byte
 *			indicate the relative order of the bytes in
 *			memory; little-endian machines have
 *			decreasing numbers while big-endian machines
 *			have increasing numbers.
 *			
 *			The fields of the numbers are printed as
 *			letters with `S' for the mantissa sign bit,
 *			`M' for the mantissa magnitude, and `E' for
 *			the exponent.  The exponent has an associated
 *			bias which can be subtracted to find the
 *			true exponent.  The radix point is assumed
 *			to be before the first `M' bit.   Any bit
 *			of a floating-point value not falling into one
 *			of these categories is printed as a question
 *			mark.  Bits of integer types are printed as
 *			`I' for 2's complement and `U' for magnitude.
 *			
 *			If the most significant bit of the normalized
 *			mantissa (always a `1' except for `0.0') is
 *			not stored then an `implicit=yes' appears
 *			under the field description.  In thie case,
 *			the radix point is still assumed to be
 *			before the first `M' but after the implicit
 *			bit.
 *
 * Modifications:
 *
 *	DO NOT MAKE MODIFICATIONS TO THIS FILE!
 *	It was generated by code in `H5detect.c'.

So this should not happen. Now we need to debug this program to figure
out what went wrong.
