I've built the sparc binaries for Branden's final test version of
XFree86.
The binary packages are available at:
http://master.debian.org/~dunham
A proper APT tree for all of the packages (binary and all) is
available via:
deb http://www.cse.msu.edu/debian xfree86/

You know there is a huge security hole in kfm(which the author
