Do you already have a patch for Bochs BIOS, or how do you test it?

I've fixed the bug in the version attached, updated the common patch
and added a Sparc32 specific patch to add the graphic depth. I added
support to Sparc32 version of OpenBIOS, it can also boot using the new
device:

Configuration device id QEMU version 1 machine id 32
CPUs: 1 x FMI,MB86904
Welcome to OpenBIOS v1.0RC1 built on Aug 31 2008 15:30
  Type 'help' for detailed information

[sparc] Booting file 'cdrom' with parameters ''
Not a bootable ELF image
Not a Linux kernel image
Loading a.out image...
Loaded 7680 bytes
entry point is 0x4000
Jumping to entry point...

So I would be ready to switch to this system.
