Not that you should normally care, but you could always get
someone who has one to run pmap -x on both a 32-bit and a 64-bit
process, which would show if not those exact numbers, at least something
that would make it pretty obvious if there were a substantially different
layout.

Or you could look at code, which (I think) would lead you to conclude that
differences wouldn't be visible at that level.

I'd guess (more than a guess actually, but less than absolutely certain)
that user-space visible address layout is the same between sun4u and sun4v.
