Where's ".div" implemented?

Ah.

Essentially what you want to do is add

LIB1ASMSRC = sparc/lb1spc.asm
LIB1ASMFUNCS = _mulsi3 _divsi3 _modsi3

to some "t-*" file in gcc.

In the gcc-3.2 tree (I'm guessing 3.3 is equivalent),
the entry for sparc-linux in gcc/config.gcc is

sparc-*-linux*)		# Sparc's running GNU/Linux, libc6
	tm_file="${tm_file} dbxelf.h elfos.h svr4.h sparc/sysv4.h sparc/linux.h"
	tmake_file="t-slibgcc-elf-ver t-linux sparc/t-crtfm"
	extra_parts="crtbegin.o crtbeginS.o crtbeginT.o crtend.o crtendS.o"
	gnu_ld=yes
	float_format=sparc
	;;

I'd say create file gcc/config/sparc/t-linux that contains

LIB1ASMSRC = sparc/lb1spc.asm
LIB1ASMFUNCS = _mulsi3 _divsi3 _modsi3

and then modify the above:

-	tmake_file="t-slibgcc-elf-ver t-linux sparc/t-crtfm"
+	tmake_file="t-slibgcc-elf-ver t-linux sparc/t-crtfm sparc/t-linux"

and give it a shot.
Haven't tried it of course, but it feels right.
