Having thought about it, I can see how we can make it work, so I
withdraw my 'hack' statement. You're right.
On Solaris and Linux, how well does autoconf cope with using CC="cc
-m32"? I've had issues with similar constructs on MIPS to select
diffrent word sizes or ABIs.

Yes, that's a much better way of saying what I was trying to say.
