According to this page

http://perso.telecom-paristech.fr/~dauphin/pkgsrcmywork/

the 64-bit mode of the Sun Freeware GCC contains some bugs, although I
don't know, if they are the cause of your problem. Personally, I don't
think it is possible at all to build a 64 bit compiler on sparc from
lang/gcc34.

My advice is: If you want to use the 64 bit ABI, either use Sun
Studio, or on Sparc use GCC for Sun Systems. For more information see
