           Summary: [PATCH] Fix description of x86_64's -m32 option
           Product: gcc

            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: trivial

Patch to fix the description

The -m32 option only instructs GCC to produce 32-bit code, but does
not alter the target processor.

So the original description is wrong in that code generated by using
this option will not run on all i386 processors.
