[Bug bootstrap/39150] Configure scripts have no 64-Bit Solaris defined (only i386-solaris*).

["ro at gcc dot gnu dot org" <gcc-bugzilla at gcc dot gnu dot org>]

------- Comment #7 from ro at gcc dot gnu dot org  2010-04-28 19:55 -------
As long as there are any Solaris 2/x86 versions supported with 32-bit kernels,
we'll need to keep the i386-pc-solaris2* configurations, which handles creating
64-bit binaries just fine.  Adding an additional 64-bit default configuration
(like amd64-pc-solaris2* or whatever) doubles the testing burden on me for no
real benefit.  In fact, I believe that the sparcv9-sun-solaris2 configurations
were a mistake and should be removed, rather than adding this for Solaris
2/x86,
too.

I'll probably refuse patches to add them since they complicate the port for
little
apparent benefit.

With respect to multilib testing, this isn't enabled by default on any
platform;
you either need a dejagnu config file for that, or run

% make -k RUNTESTFLAGS='--target_board "unix{,-m64}"'

You're right that this should be properly documented in the testing
instructions.
Please file a new PR for that issue.
