This sounds like the sparc backed doesn't have inline asm support, which isn't a surprise. I'd suggest disabling bootstrapping.

That was going to be my guess (PR1557 I think it is). If I get some spare cycles in the near future I'll try to look into getting this working.

Thanks.
I wonder if we could use .bc file generated by X-86 llvm-gcc to feed SPARC

You will have problems with struct layout, endianness, and calling convention,
all of which are different between the targets. You might be able to get some
simple cases to work.
