We probably shouldn't stabilise grep 3.5 on sparc given it doesn't pass tests due to a real issue. See bug 768135 (https://gitweb.gentoo.org/repo/gentoo.git/commit/?id=9c56995f410c33050133c71a45da78f4d3ee9868).

TL;DR: there's a gnulib set of changes which we need in 3.5 which are a bit much for a backport. Stabilising grep 3.6 on sparc would work but I don't know if the team considers it ready yet, as it's a bit newer.

Like I told you in IRC, I am fine with sparc stabilizing grep-3.6 instead of 3.5.

I mentioned in -dev that I unfortunately lost my backlog, so I didn't see that! Thank you :)
