The only differences for sparc32 is that prom_printf is no longer exported for modules which should be OK.

cyber200fb uses prom_prinf and can be built as a module.
>From Kconfig:

config FB_CYBER2000
        tristate "CyberPro 2000/2010/5000 support"
        depends on FB && PCI && (BROKEN || !SPARC64)

So it looks to me we should keep the EXPORT.

Since this is the only driver that can use prom_printf in a module
and it appears that the only sparc system that uses it is an unreleased
version of the java station, wouldn't it be better to change the
prom_printf to a printk in this driver?

I didn't see this problem because I don't compile with pci support
because it's one of the things I have to disable to get a kernel
small enough to actually load.
