I've already investigated a lot on this issue :-( The main issue is
that the Solaris 10/x86 was installed for 32-bit (on a HP DL380 G3) and
is now running under 32-bit on a 64-bit aware HP DL380 G4. This let's
gcc fail to build as it thinks it is running under 64-bit although the
Solaris is still in 32-bit mode.

Depends on how much hackery you already have done. Currently we have
a cruel hack in gcc which disables all amd64 things under configure
time. This way gcc builds at least again.

A simple hello world program if linked with "cc -o hello hello.c
-lsocket -lnsl" tells us that /usr/lib/lib{mp,md5,scf}.so.* is not found
-- although these libraries exist and are correctly referenced in the
ELF headers of lib{socket,nsl}.so.*. Perl fails exactly because of this
problem, too.
