They certainly weren't on the SPARC distributions, at least not the

They are, iirc, and you can even boot from them. The instructions I used
may have been these: http://www.sun3arc.org/install/install.phtml
SPARC isn't mentioned anywhere on that page, at least not for booting.
Further, there were different Distribution CDROMs for Sun3 and Sun4
machines, labeled as such.

The last
release of SunOS to support 68K ("sun3x" kernel architecture
for the 68030-based machines, the 3/80 ad 3/400, all others are "sun3")
is 4.1.1_U1. I have boot tape images, but not a CDROM image. I don't
think I've ever seen it on CDROM for 68K.
If memory serves, it's still on the CD-ROM alongside SPARC, if you know
where to look. I don't have my SunOS CD-ROMs with me to check, though.
