Log:
Further tailoring of build process to hardware on SPARC. This is only experimental
on a very non-mainstream architecture.

+For the SPARC architecture, we introduced a test that checks if th
+machine is an UltraSparc III and if so, add "-mcpu=ultrasparc3" to the
+compiler flags. Other UltraSparcs get "-mcpu=ultrsparc". This way,
+the binary will no longer be executable on older machines if the
+build daemon was an UltraSparc. Users of those systems will be
 required to locally build the package.
+
+This will be disappointing to all those who now lose an advantage of
+the Debian approach to prepare ready-to-use packages. On the other hand,
+Debian packages are also "ready to recompile".
 
 Consequently, we should also aim at running 64bit apps for SPARC. This
 has not yet been addressed but will happen with more experience gained.
+This task also involves other packages in Debian which would need to
+become available as 64bit favours, first.
