To all who found my deadly mistake of saying SPARC architecture instead

You didn't really.  Both PA-RISC and IA64 have switchable endianness. As I said in my initial response, the issue with 
writing shellcode for PA-RISC is that the registers and some of the instruction set are completely different from x86.  
Forget byte order, you have to learn a different version of assembly. 

Read the Phrack article Marco provided a link for.
