Hi,
Few months back, I had asked the question below:

The solution fron Ben Collins seemed to work fine then, but now again I
am having the same problem with the same program, even though I have the
upgraded libc6-dev-sparc64(v2.2.5-8).

Has anyone successfully compiled gcc-3.1 on ultrasparc?? After I
"apt-get install gcc-3.1" on my ultrasparc I, when I try to execute the
above test program with "gcc-3.1 -m64 test.c" , it says:

cc1: -m64 is not supported by this configuration
cc1: -mlong-double-64 not allowed with -m64
 
Hence, when I tried to compile gcc-3.1 from source, it gave me some error saying "libc cannot create binaries". I guess this is some sparc32/64 issue.
Can anyone point to the problem??

Thank you.
-Regards
