IA64 & HAVE_ABI_64 question

I am looking at a bug involving building GCC in 64 bit mode on HP-UX Itanium.
The compiler is dying in the GMP library and it looks like it is dying in
the GMP __gmpn_copyi routine.  I looked at mpn/ia64/copyi.asm and at the
beginning of this code is some ifdefe'd code under an HAVE_ABI_32 bit
ifdef.  This code is needed when compiling GMP in 32 bit mode on HP-UX but
should not be used when compiling in 64 bit mode on HP-UX.  But when
I use gdb to disassemble __gmpn_copyi I see the ifdef'ed code (the addp4's).
So I think the bug is that I am compiling GMP in 64 bit mode but HAVE_ABI_32
is defined.

My problem is that I cannot find in the GMP sources or in my make output
or in any generated header file where HAVE_ABI_32 (or any other HAVE_ABI
value) is being set.  I see where ABI is set by configure:

obj/config.log:ABI=64

but I don't see where this is used to define HAVE_ABI_64.  And, of course,
since I am defining ABI to be 64 why does HAVE_ABI_32 appear to to getting
set during the build?

Can anyone help me?
