Indeed.  The difference is that by foo.c.18.combine the constant
pool reference has been optimized away on sparc32, but it isn't
if "-m64" is specified or on sparc64.

Thanks.

Excellent.  I'll perform the usual bootstraps and regression tests
on sparc-sun-solaris2.8, and then post the patch to gcc-patches
today or tomorrow.
