Good to know that worked. :)

Yes.

More than likely, this is what happened.

0.4 didn't install gcc-sparc32 (gcc-c++-sparc32, etc). Bug was fixed in
1.0's comps...
...but when you did an upgrade, 1.0 said "gcc-*sparc32* wasn't installed
before, i don't need to install it now" I probably should have made it
dep on that in the packages themselves.

To the best of my knowledge, the gcc-*sparc32* packages provide the
sparc32 optimizations, which is why it fails building things with high
optimization (e.g. crypto). It probably should always be present though,
even though its technically optional.
