Hmm, I'm guessing you are on an 64bit system; if so, and you are running the release version of sparse (v0.4.4 Nov 2011), I would clone the sparse repo [1] and build from source. There have been many improvements to the 64bit support since the last release (I hear it was unusable). [Note: I can't confirm that - I'm currently stuck on 32bits!]
