See debian bug 257265. Looks like silly ioctl issues were reported
for sparc64 (64bit kernel, 32bit userspace) about a year ago and a
fix was put into the 2.6.8-1 kernel package.

http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=257265

If the debian AMD64 kernel is not built from this package (or it's
descendent) you'll need to check to see if this mod is in that
kernel.`

Cheers,

Dave.
