The tar file was corrupted as I received it.  Also, it did not seem to
contain any information about how gcc was configured.

However, I did see both 32-bit and 64-bit code.  The 32-bit and 64-bit
ABI are different.  If you were compiling in 32-bit mode before, and
you are compiling in 64-bit mode now, then that is your problem.
Struct layouts are not the same in those two modes.

You can probably use the -m32 option with your new compiler to
generate 32-bit code.
