This is the triplet I get for my 64 bit build: checking build system type... i386-pc-solaris2.10 checking host system type... i386-pc-solaris2.10 These are the flags I set which are also inherited in the gettext-runtime subinvocation: 'CC=/opt/csw/bin/gcc-5.5' 'CFLAGS=-O2 -pipe -fno-omit-frame-pointer -m64 -march=opteron' 'LDFLAGS=-m64 -march=opteron -L/opt/csw/lib/64' 'CPPFLAGS=-I/opt/csw/include' 'CXX=/opt/csw/bin/g++-5.5' 'CXXFLAGS=-O2 -pipe -fno-omit-frame-pointer -m64 -march=opteron' > And this code works fine.

Nope, neither —host nor —cache-file, but what differs is that I pass -m64 in CFLAGS and not as part of CC.
