I see the same results using 4.1.1 on Solaris 10 with i32lp64 with the 
usual extra test failures on adding addresses.  (As a side note, I find 
that trying to build gm2 with i32lp64 with my resident gcc-3.x fails 
with the gm2 libraries compiled into ELF32.   However, if I build 
gcc-4.1.1 first and then build gm2 with gcc-4.1.1, the gm2 libraries are 
correctly compiled into ELF64.  I do not understand what happens here. 
The only difference in the configuration options is adding gm2 to the 
languages.)
