Sounds like you just want a bare-metal cross. There's absolutely no reason to
run the editor, compiler or assembler on the target machine.
Many targets even have gdb simulators (MIPS, ARM and PPC do).
IMHO there's nothing particularly good about sparc for teaching assembly
(Whoever thought register windows were a good idea!).
