I'm pretty sure that's not true.

Here are some example testresults for a 32-bit sparc-sun-solaris2.11 compiler:

And here are results for a 64-bit sparcv9 compiler:

Have a look at how those successful builds were configured, the bottom
of each mail shows the configure command.  When trying those commands,
make sure you unset those env vars that you were using.
