Research direction

Start by reproducing the nightly cross-compilation to sparc64-unknown-netbsd with clang+lld and -Zbuild-std, then inspect the verbose linker invocation and the R_SPARC_64 diagnostics. The report names no repository files or tests; done means identifying the responsible compiler or linker component and confirming a successful link or a precisely documented diagnosis.
