And what is the limit on sparc32? The silo that comes
with debian etch will not load a kernel compiled with
the default configuration. It hasn't for a long time.
Currently you have to disable virtually every option
just to get a kernel that loads. Sparc32 has been
broken for a while because you can't load a kernel
that does anything.
