--- Comment #9 from davem at gcc dot gnu.org 2012-11-05 21:38:40 UTC --- I'm having a hard time reproducing this, I've tried 32-bit bootstraps with several variations of your listed configure command line. But meanwhile I want some clarification on your environment. Is uname outputting "sparc" or "sparc64" when you run configure? It really needs to be the former if you are telling the compiler to output 32-bit code by default (which is what --with-cpu=v8 does). Thanks.
