64-bit sparclinux target is not supported yet.
32-bit native is on UltraSparc linux machines. EGCS works just fine
on these machine as that is the configuration under which and where I
do all my sparc egcs work.
There are two ways to accomplish this:
1) Write a small program which essentially does:
set_personality(PER_LINUX32);
execve(argv[0], argv, envp);
The effect of this is to make uname claim "sparc" instead of
"sparc64", then configure does all the right things.
2) Force it directly to configure with --build=sparc-linux or
something like this.
64-bit sparc-linux targets won't be supported until after the 1.1 egcs
release.
Later,
