Thanks, but my rpmrc looks identical to that too. ~/.rpmrc doesn't
seem to help either. Here's the top of rpm --showrc on each

You can see why its building every package as sun4u, yet there's no
obvious reason for it. The macros file looks more or less
identical, and so does the rpmrc file.... but something has to be
differen't on the new machine. I'm stumped... Tim any thoughts?
The difference is likely compiled into lib/rpmrc.c translating uname(2).
Having gook compiled into rpm is one of many reasons why rpmrc
file handling has been removed.
In rpm-4.4.7+, the --target option can be used to set the arch, what
you see is what you get.
Meanwhile, try
mkdir -p /etc/rpm
echo "sparc64-sun-solaris2.9" > /etc/rpm/platform
