Sure, but none of this is ever likely to work.
FWIW, all sparc32 systems with PCI have internal devices only and no
PCI add-in cards, and they'll never see an NVIDIA device.
So it's a different situation than sparc64 where someone could put an
NVIDIA card into a PCI slot and we'd like that to work.
I wish there were an easy way to eliminate nonsense configuration
combinations for a given platform.
