The patch isn't complete. SILO checks to make sure that the kernel can
be relocated. You probably also need to patch up sparc kernel to allow
itself to be loaded at an alternate location. Whole lot of work.

Honestly, just compile it with less stuff. I don't have a sparc32 to
test anything on, so I'm of no help.
