This is correct. While there is a sparc64-unknown-linux-gnu setup |
| 5 |
floating around, it is strictly for compiling the kernel. Also, there |
| 6 |
are some ebuilds (like glibc) that may depend on |
| 7 |
sparc-unknown-linux-gnu existing or they will fail. |

As for why userland is 32 bits, take a look at the whole thread on |
| 10 |
this topic from the sparclinux mailing list archives[1]. While it is |
| 11 |
a bit dated, I believe the information is still relevant. |
