A feature I would like to have is binary execution of sparc binaries on x86. I

I'm not sure what this entails, but the ability of being able to run the Adobe 
Acrobat Reader on x86 would be huge.

Thanks!

qemu already supposedly runs SPARC targets. I have not tried it in SPARC mode, although I have run, and been impressed with, the x86 emulation. It might be interesting to see how complete and fast the emulation is; it claims to be user and system.
