Hello,
I give here a list of steps I did for installation on my sparc boxen:
NetBSD/1.6.2 (sparc) and OpenBSD/3.5
- install GNU make (gmake)
- install all available libaries from the pkgsrc tree. (libtool,
popt...) but not libffi: it will fail
- install libffi. This is tricky, I split it up in
- patch the assembler sources (with patch already sent to the list) so
not to confuse gcc/as/cpp
- patch to add OpenBSD/sparc as a supported platform (not needed for
NetBSD)
- build and install
- patch the ffi.h so not to fail with an error for "unsupported 64 bit
data types"
- manually install /usr/local/include/ffitarget.h (it is present in the
include dir of the ffi build directory, but doesn't get installed
automatically)
- configure sablevm. On NetBSD, which has some libraries in /usr/local
(our libffi for example) and some in /usr/pkg/lib I used:
./configure -C LDFLAGS="-L/usr/local/lib -L/usr/pkg/lib"
CPPFLAGS="-I/usr/local/include -I/usr/pkg/include"
(the -C enables caching)
- gmake, gmake install
- configure and buidl classpath. I disabled gtk peers.
and now test... and see that it runs :)
I hope to be able to add SavleVM benchmars soon in my java benchmarking
and comparison effort. (Look for "architectural benchmarks")

or for the bleeding edge, local version (if you find my workstation
up...):

PS:
If you are really curious, SableVM was built on my own sparc boxes:
Mallorn (some benchs already show up) and Rochben.
