Nope, not a chance. SPARC binaries do not run on x86. Also the work
of porting to x86 are non-trivial. There is the overhead of translating
big-endian (680x0) to little endian (x86), the reduction of free registers,
translation of handcoded assembly code, etc.
In other words, don't hold your breath.
