Oh -- how stupid of me!  I failed to set LD_LIBRARY_PATH_64.  With this
set to /home/build/gcc4.1.2/lib/sparcv9, gmake check-gm2 produces the
following.

# of expected passes            8610
# of unexpected failures        96
# of unresolved testcases       42

Normally, gcc on Solaris/sparc has no problem with the 32/64-bit  
libraries.
The link-editor knows what to do.  For reasons unknown to me, gm2 has
problems finding the correct libraries so I must set LD_LIBRARY_PATH_64
when invoking gm2.  Somehow, I stopped setting it.

This summer, I must investigate why it must be set in gm2 but not gcc.
(I use gcc-4.1.2, built on the box.)

Sincerely,
john
