Hi All,

This might seem like a daft question, but I have just installed gcc 3.2 and
want to compile Exim as 64bit.

I tried adding '-m64' to CFLAGS in OS/Makefile-SunOS5, but although that
starts out OK, it soon fails with the following message:

    <snip>
    gcc -c -O -m64 exim_dbmbuild.c
    gcc -o exim_dbmbuild exim_dbmbuild.o \
      -lsocket -lnsl -lkstat
    ld: fatal: file exim_dbmbuild.o: wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS64
    <snip>


Does anyone know how to do this properly ?
