Well it doesn't matter what the compiler is running *on*...only what
it's told to generate code for. Heck, I frequently run GCC on an
UltraSPARC and tell it to generate binaries for a 68K.
I've not messed with GCC on an UltraSPARC for quite a while (I
ditched it in codegen frustration in preference to Sun's compilers),
but if memory serves, a GCC built for an UltraSPARC target can generate
either 32- or 64-bit binaries. I'm not 100% positive of this, but I
believe that's the case.
