Not really useful (could be ln -s /usr/sparc-linux . ?)
In effect, ld on sparc32 arch tries to create sparc32 binaries, not sparc64
ones unless "-m elf64_sparc" is provided on the command line.
The makefiles in linux kernel sources tree don't call ld like above but just
sparc64-linux-ld. Therefore I have had to replace the link with a script to
put the -m argument in front of the command line.
I could say this a bug because sparc64-linux-ld should always create sparc64
binaries, not sparc32 ones by default, unless -m elf32_sparc is provided on the
command line.
I don't know however where to fix it: no package provide sparc64-linux-xxx
alternatives yet (good candidate could be egcs64).
Regards.
PS: I forgot nm -> sparc64-linux-nm in the list above.
