Yes, it should just "work". And it would have if you:
1) Make sure /lib64/libc.so.6 is installed.
2) Delete the file /etc/disable_64_gcc
Then gcc would output 64-bit code by default when the
"uname" command outputs "sparc64". You could then simply
run "sparc32 bash" to get an environment where uname outputs
plain "sparc" and this causes the Debian gcc to output 32-bit
code by default.
We plan on adding similar logic to the compiler driver itself.
I totally agree with you that when "uname" outputs "sparc64"
the compiler on the system should be outputting 64-bit code
by default which is what many (not just gcc's) configure
scripts and build trees expect.
Since this problem has to do with Debian's gcc behavior and
not with a gcc proper bug per-se, I'm closing this as invalid.
