No, I would like to have 64 but it does not work, with 4.1.3 I still get 
this error : 
http://www.swox.com/list-archives/gmp-bugs/2004-January/000042.html
I tried to add -fPIC to CFLAGS for configure, but then the compiling breaks 
with some error about requesting sparclight ...

I dont use any special options now, just run
ABI=32 ./configure
make

and then the needed file and function is not created.

Problem is, its not my system, so I run stuff in my homedir, and I dont 
have much experience with solaris. If you can tell me how to do it with the 
sun compiler (Sun C 5.5 2003/03/12 installed here) it would be nice. My 
final goal is to get rid of the bus error when using gmp, so I tried to use 
4.1.3 (4.reallyold installed here)
