Well, if you look at the majority of patches these days that are sent
to this list they mostly deal with modern sparc64 hardware and many
of them written by developers who are paid for this work. So, I think
there is definitely more a focus on modern hardware which is not
surprising. You don't see many patches for old x86 hardware in the kernel
either.
