Why? Get sparc-solaris binutils, put these libs in the compiler dir and do
cd fpc; make clean all OS_TARGET=solaris CPU_TARGET=sparc
[...]
make[3]: Leaving directory `C:/fpc/utils/fpdoc'
make[2]: Leaving directory `C:/fpc/utils'
make[1]: Leaving directory `C:/fpc'
echo Build > build-stamp.sparc-solaris
and get a native compiler in fpc/compiler:
C:\fpc>dir compiler\ppcsparc
Datenträger in Laufwerk C: ist 6Y120PO PRI
