   Hi Mark,

   This seems to be an incredibly frequently recurring problem for
   sparc-solaris users.  Can we make GDB detect the problem?  I would
   suggest making configury default to 64-bit for sparcv9/sparc64, but
   that's not appropriate for gcc or binutils or other toplevel projects,
   probably.

That's seems like a good idea.  Have to think a bit though where to
stick this warning, but I'll find the proper spot.
