This isn't sufficient to find GNU as/ld.

The safest is to use "--with-as=<path> --with-ld=<path> --with-gnu-as
--with-gnu-ld" or nothing to get Solaris as/ld.  (I consider this a bug.)

What does config.log say?  You may need to configure binutils for sparcv9.

The workaround is --disable-multilib to prevent building 64-bit libs.
