If you have a 32-bit library in your library search path while compiling

This may be true for Linux but I believe that the Solaris linker ignores libraries which don't match the requested ABI. Since libtool itself does not yet know about multilib ABIs, it is likely to choose the first matching library it finds, which may be the wrong ABI.
