[Buildroot] [PATCH 1/1] setools: disable arch sparc64

[Matt Weber]

Currently the buildroot sparc64 toolchain encounters a series of relocation
errors.  i.e.
policy_scan.c: relocation truncated to fit: R_SPARC_GOT13 against symbol ....

Workaround for numerous autobuilder failures, including:

IMO, it can be made to work quite easily on sparc64, it's just a matter
of using -fPIE to build, and not -fpie.

Good to know.  I'll reject this patch and do some further testing.

In fact, it's just -fPIC vs. -fpic. I've committed a fix:
