Thanks for fixing this bug!

kyoto is unfortunately offline because I lost the place for hosting it and
I haven't found a new home for this server yet. At the moment, the machine
is sitting in my shelf at home in storage.
There is some hope we will have a SPARC-T4 available soon that is currently
being set up for the GCC compile farm and that we can get some LDOMs on
(SPARC virtual machines).

You can use qemu-user which is easier to use:

I'll give it a try.
