(Never tried it on the sparcs 'coz I got rid of the SPARCstations long ago.) I don't know how you'd peel out the results of your compile and place them into your 64 bit "host" without mucking up things. I guess you could use binpkg or some such but you'd still have the problem of unwrapping the 32 bit pkg in your 64 bit host. Yuck.
