The one above has a lot of headers and libxxx-dev-sparc-cross.dev  packages installed by default.
It is a multiarch compiler for debian-64-wheezy. You can build new cross package by:
$apt-get source <name>
$cd <dir>
$dpkg-buildpackage -asparc -us -uc -rfakeroot -b
Then you convert  the .deb to multiarch:
$export CC=sparc-linux-gnu-gcc
and install the "dev" deb oackages:
$dpkg-cross -A -M -a sparc -b <dev-name>.deb
$sudo dpkg -i <dev-name-sparc-cross>.deb
Most of the time you have to fiddle with he buildscripts though.
You need to be in a debian-64 wheezy distribution. (I use a 64-bit virtual virtualbox
and netinst from http://www.debian.org/devel/debian-installer/).
