I see myself as HUMBUG's resident SPARC bigot, so I was disappointed
that you were dissing the cpu in this RND2000.

Then I found http://archive.cert.uni-stuttgart.de/bugtraq/2007/08/msg00163.html
which is a bit old, but mentions a "Leon SPARC" http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LEON
and, sad to say, that's SPARC v8. Sigh. V8 is so old!
