Hi Adrian

I was recently contacted by Klaus Ziegler about this. Maybe you could 
join forces?

Here is part of the reply that I sent him:

"Work was done on a SPARC port by Sun, but it got dropped after the 
Oracle takeover. A bit of a shame as the port was more or less complete 
as far as I know. There is a copy of the bitbucket repo here:

https://bitbucket-archive.softwareheritage.org/projects/ir/iraisr/valgrind-solaris.html

The repo tarball contains a bare mercurial repo with 3 branches, default 
with linux-sparc64 and solaris-sparc64 (I haven't looked at the 3rd branch).
The code is 8 years old, merging changes from the official Valgrand repo 
is going to be quite a big job."

The above tarball seems to have the full history. My mercurial skills 
are very rusty, but I was able to clone the above repp. That gives me

paulf> hg identify
df5811b684c8 (solaris-sparc)

The final commit is
