It's extremely unlikely that you got that error from gcc.  It is much
more likely that you got the error from the linker.

Current versions of gcc does appear to support 64-bit code on HP-UX.
gcc 2.8.1 is very very old--it was released in March 1998, over 7
years ago.  I don't know whether it supported 64-bit HP-UX code.  The
current version of gcc is 4.0.
