   If someone can give me a hint about what is wrong I will apreciate
   very much. I really don't think printk is buggy but I hadn't no
   other subject.

Pay attention to the cflags given to the compiler when the sparc64
kernel build compiles the modules... some are different on every
platform, but most are the same.

For sparc64 with module symbols you'd do something like:

export KSRC_PATH=/path/to/kernel/src

#if defined(ULTRAPENGUIN_1_1_9) || (SPARC64_GCC_IS_EGCS)
sparc64-linux-gcc -D__KERNEL__ -I$(KSRC_PATH)/linux/include -Wall \
                  -Wstrict-prototypes -O2 -fomit-frame-pointer -m64 \
                  -pipe -mno-fpu -mcpu=ultrasparc -mcmodel=medlow \
	          -ffixed-g4 -fcall-used-g5 -fcall-used-g7 \
                  -Wno-sign-compare -DMODULES -DMODVERSIONS \
                  -include $(KSRC_PATH)/linux/include/linux/modversions.h \
                  -c -o mymodule.o mymodule.c
#else
sparc64-linux-gcc -D__KERNEL__ -I$(KSRC_PATH)/linux/include -Wall \
                  -Wstrict-prototypes -O2 -fomit-frame-pointer \
                  -pipe -mno-fpu -mtune=ultrasparc -mcmodel=medlow \
	          -ffixed-g4 -fcall-used-g5 -fcall-used-g7 \
                  -Wno-sign-compare -DMODULES -DMODVERSIONS \
                  -include $(KSRC_PATH)/linux/include/linux/modversions.h \
                  -c -o mymodule.o mymodule.c
#endif
