Partially this case, actually.    The xorgcfg & xorgconfig entries should be
on SPARC from the project that delivered Xorg on SPARC - that's just a bug
(filed now, CR 6760523).

The scanpci entries were not present on SPARC because scanpci was not delivered
on SPARC previously, due to its use of the x86-only /dev/xsvc to get the PCI
device data.

Since this project converts to libdevinfo to get the PCI device data, the new
scanpci works on SPARC, and is thus delivered by this case, so this case
will add the exec_attr entries for scanpci on SPARC too.
