Good to know, thanks!

Would you mind putting this up in the Debian Wiki on the sparc64 page?

It would also be interesting to know whether you could get networking
on qemu-sparc64 because recently I never managed to do that. Also,
when using virt-manager, I always receive an obscure permissions
error when creating a new sparc64 VM, so I always have to resort
to the command line.

It would be absolutely fantastic to have a complete walkthrough guide
in the wiki which explains how to get a working qemu-sparc64 on
a vanilla Debian testing/unstable.
