Hi,
On a bi-arch Linux/glibc system (x86, x86_64) I'm getting 3 test failures
when building for 32-bit mode:
$ ./configure --host=i686-pc-linux-gnu --prefix=/arch/x86-linux/gnu \
CC="gcc -m32 -march=i586" \
CXX="g++ -m32 -march=i586" \
F77="gfortran -m32 -march=i586" \
FC="gfortran -m32 -march=i586" \
LDFLAGS="-m32" \
CPPFLAGS=-Wall
$ make
$ make check
FAIL: t/fort4
FAIL: t/fort5
FAIL: t/silent-many-gcc
Let's analyze the t/fort4 failure. The two other failures look similar.
FAIL: t/fort4

You can see that hello.o is a 32-bit mode object file, whereas foo.o and
bar.o are 64-bit ones.

$ grep gfortran t/fort4.dir/Makefile
F77 = gfortran -m32 -march=i586

FCLIBS = -L/usr/lib64/gcc/x86_64-suse-linux/4.6

So, apparently,
- hello.o is created through the .f.o rule, which uses $(F77COMPILE),
which uses $(F77), which was determined by AC_PROG_F77 and is a 32-bit
compiler. Good. (But how was the value passed from automake's top
config.status to t/fort4.dir/configure? Through the 'defs' script?)
- foo.o and bar.o are created through the .f90.o rule, which uses
$(FCCOMPILE), which uses $(FC), which was determined by AC_PROG_FC and
is a 64-bit compiler. Bad.
When I add a 'set -x' statement to 'defs', I see these assignments:
+++ CC='gcc -m32 -march=i586'
+++ CXX='g++ -m32 -march=i586'
+++ F77='gfortran -m32 -march=i586'
+++ FC='gfortran -m32 -march=i586'
+++ CFLAGS='-g -O2'
+++ CXXFLAGS='-g -O2'

+++ GNU_FCFLAGS=
+++ GNU_CXXFLAGS='-g -O2'
+++ GNU_CFLAGS='-g -O2'
+++ GNU_GCJ=gcj
+++ GNU_GCJFLAGS=
Obviously, the value of GNU_FC is wrong. It comes from the AC_SUBSTed
variable GNU_FC. Here's the difference:
$ grep GNU_F77 config.status
S["ac_ct_GNU_F77"]=""
S["GNU_F77"]="gfortran -m32 -march=i586"
$ grep GNU_FC config.status
S["ac_ct_GNU_FC"]="gfortran"
S["GNU_FCFLAGS"]=""
S["GNU_FC"]="gfortran"
Apparently this piece of code from configure.ac took the wrong path in 'if':
# GNU Fortran compiler.
AC_ARG_VAR([GNU_FC], [GNU Fortran compiler])
AC_ARG_VAR([GNU_FCFLAGS], [GNU Fortran compiler flags])
if test $am_FC_is_GNU = yes; then

fi
AS_IF([AM_RUN_LOG([$GNU_FC --version && $GNU_FC -v])], [],
[AC_MSG_WARN([botched installation for GNU Fortran compiler])

because in the output of the configure command I see
configure: will now look for GNU compilers
configure: gcc -m32 -march=i586 is already a GNU C compiler
configure: g++ -m32 -march=i586 is already a GNU C++ compiler

configure: gfortran -m32 -march=i586 is already a GNU Fortran 77 compiler
but there is no line "gfortran -m32 -march=i586 is already a GNU Fortran
compiler"
$ gfortran --version
GNU Fortran (SUSE Linux) 4.6.2
In the configure.ac there is also a comment
# FIXME this won't work as expected until we can assume autoconf 2.69 :-(
AS_IF([test x"$GFC" = x"yes"], [am_FC_is_GNU=yes], [am_FC_is_GNU=no])
Would it be sufficient to rebuild automake's configure script with
autoconf 2.69 instead of 2.68?
