there is a bug in the master Makefile as of 2.1.106. It was introduced with
the ARM related stuff and shows itself on sparc:
ARCH := $(shell uname -m | sed -e s/i.86/i386/ -e s/sun4u/sparc64/ -e s/arm*/arm/ -e s/sa110/arm/)
will change "sparc" into "sparmc", because of a missing "." in the regular
expression. The correct sequence is:
ARCH := $(shell uname -m | sed -e s/i.86/i386/ -e s/sun4u/sparc64/ -e s/arm.*/arm/ -e s/sa110/arm/)
Yours,

PS. Is it intended to merge the missing SPARC stuff before 2.2? With RH and
Debian preparing or already shipping S/Linux distributions, it would be
good if the kernels distributed via ftp.kernel.org would at least
compile...
