	* sysdeps/sparc/sparc32/sparcv8/Makefile: -mv8 is deprecated, use
	-mcpu=v8.
	* sysdeps/sparc/sparc32/sparcv9/Makefile: Likewise.
	* sysdeps/sparc/sparc64/Makefile: Make %g7 register available for
	libc's private use (as assembly routine clobber it anyway).

1999-07-26  Andreas Jaeger  <aj@arthur.rhein-neckar.de>

	* README.template (configurations): The crypt add-on has a new
	ftp site.
	* manual/install.texi (Installation): Likewise.
