Thanks, Peter ... will do, definitely have Linux and can use it to test in the future before reporting other bugs. That said, I think you can close this one.

Screenshot attached. Using version 1.7.0 on Mac OS X 10.9 via MacPorts and compiled directly from source, though this problem has carried over from Mac OS X 10.8 and many earlier versions of Qemu. The following is my Qemu command: sudo qemu-system-sparc -m 256 -M SS-5 -bios /home/img/ROMs/sun/ss5-170.bin \ -g 1024x768x24 \ -drive file=/home/doc/VMs/slagheap/sd0.raw,if=scsi,bus=0,unit=3 \ -drive file=/home/doc/VMs/slagheap/sd1.raw,if=scsi,bus=0,unit=1 \ -drive file=/home/doc/VMs/slagheap/sd2.raw,if=scsi,bus=0,unit=2 \ -net nic,macaddr=DE:EE:DD:FF:EE:DD,model=lance \ -net tap,ifname=tap0,script=/home/doc/VMs/slagheap/ifup,downscript=/home/doc/VMs/slagheap/ifdown Note: also can't compile Qemu w/ SDL support from MacPorts on Mac OS X, and config.log is not helpful to figure out why, but this is another issue.
