    I guess you're doing an ABI=64 build (the default) but it's hit the
    32-bit libraries.  What's the ld command being run?  Does it look
    right?  Also is this with gcc or the system cc?

Looks like this old Sun cc is used.



Without fiddling with PATH I get:
checking build system type... ultrasparc2i-sun-solaris2.7
checking host system type... ultrasparc2i-sun-solaris2.7
using ABI="64"
      CC="cc"
      CFLAGS="-fast -fns=no -fsimple=1 -xarch=v9"
      CPPFLAGS=""
      MPN_PATH=" sparc64 generic"

With PATH=/usr/bin:/usr/ccs/bin:/usr/xpg4/bin:/usr/ucb I get:
configure: error: could not find a working compiler

With PATH=/usr/bin:/usr/ccs/bin:/usr/xpg4/bin:/usr/ucb:$HOME/bin
where $HOME/bin has a link to gcc I get:
using ABI="32"
      CC="gcc"
      CFLAGS="-g -O2 -Wa,-xarch=v8plus -mcpu=ultrasparc"
      CPPFLAGS=""
      MPN_PATH=" sparc32/v9 sparc32/v8 sparc32 generic"

and now "make" ends with

...
ar cq .libs/libgmp.a  assert.o compat.o ... very long line
ranlib .libs/libgmp.a
creating libgmp.la
Output line too long.
(cd .libs && rm -f libgmp.la && ln -s ../libgmp.la libgmp.la)
%

All seems to work fine.
