The gcc info page states `-m32' `-m64' Generate code for a 32-bit or 64-bit environment. The 32-bit environment sets int, long and pointer to 32 bits and generates code that runs on any i386 system. So, -m32 doesn't use the new, extended register set. -- http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=40647
