Kjetil Oftedal mentioned that piggyback_32 was failing
when building a sparc image.

I tracked this down to the fact that the kernel no longer
provided an absolute symbol named "end".

Commit 86ed40bd6fe511d26bb8f3fa65a84cb65c235366 ("sparc: unify sections.h")
renamed end to _end but failed to update piggyback_32.

This is not even build tested - but looks obvious.

I don't even know how to build test this:

Thats a bug from when we unified sparc.
Blame the person that unified boot/Makefile :-(

It looks like a simple piggyback => piggyback_32 in Makefile.

I will repost when I can actually build-test it.
(Which may take a while).
