My simplistic plan is as follows:
- Sparc32 for Qemu
- Sparc32 for some real HW
- Sparc64 for Qemu
- Sparc64 for some real HW

I don't know about guest OSes, Mini-OS could be a start.

I'm only beginning to grasp Xen internals, but I think I know the CPUs well. 
Not the real world erratas and their workarounds, performance etc. though.
