It's an rpmbuild --rebuild of Fedora's strace-4.18-1.fc24.src.rpm, but according to the
build log the following should do it:
export CFLAGS='-O2 -g -pipe -Wall -Werror=format-security -Wp,-D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2 -fexceptions -fstack-protector --param=ssp-buffer-size=4 -grecord-gcc-switches -m32 -mcpu=ultrasparc'
./configure --build=sparcv9-unknown-linux-gnu --host=sparcv9-unknown-linux-gnu --program-prefix= --disable-dependency-tracking --prefix=/usr --exec-prefix=/u
sr --bindir=/usr/bin --sbindir=/usr/sbin --sysconfdir=/etc --datadir=/usr/share --includedir=/usr/include --libdir=/usr/lib --libexecdir=/usr/libexec --local
statedir=/var --sharedstatedir=/var/lib --mandir=/usr/share/man --infodir=/usr/share/info
make -j2
make -j2 -k check VERBOSE=1
