Sorry if this has nothing to do with the thread, but a few weeks ago I sent a 
mail with inconviniences in compiling PostgreSQL with 64bit support. In the 
PostgreSQL list, the person that had tested PG in Linux SPARC (Debian) said 
it couldn't be compiled with 64 bit support (even when configure found 64 bit 
support in the system).
Is there a straight forward way to get full (or almost full) 64 bit support in 
Linux on SPARC? Does it have to do with GCC or glibc?

Here is the link to the mail I sent (it has the output from make):
