SPARC 64 bits can also be used as 32-bit, in which case the ABI is
called sparcv8 plus. It is not compatible with the sparcv9 ABI.
Therefore sparcv8plus.o can't be used and even does not compile.

I have created this line mixing the linux64-sparcv9 line and the
solaris64-sparcv9-gcc line. I have added -Wa,--noexecstack as on other
debian lines, and removed -mcpu=ultrasparc which is the default in our
gcc compiler.
