NetBSD/sparc still supports sun4c, so default cannot be changed there.

Why not 2.6+? Because 7+ does 64-bit?

Indeed.

Go ahead, post the patch for Solaris 7+ on gcc-patches@, I'll install it.

looking at linux64.h it seems that the default Linux config is -m64 -mcpu=v9.
Are you saying that Debian configured gcc package for -m32 -mcpu=v9?
Great.
How about other Linux distributions?

Few things to consider:
- v7 is legacy
. used in old Sun's sun4c systems
. 32-bit only
. no integer mul/div insns
- first 64-bit SPARC was made in 1995
. I guess it
