gcc-*sparc32* is just an optimization. If something builds
when gcc-*sparc32* is installed and doesn't without that, it just means
you don't have enough memory, because the memory footprint of normal gcc
is between 1.5 and twice as big as the one of gcc-*sparc32* (it uses
long long in lots of places).
