Which version of gcc, which options?  gcc is normally built to have
32-bit ints and 32-bit longs on 64-bit Solaris.

There are flags such as -m32, -m64, -mcmodel=code-model, However,
my Solaris version of gcc says

     -m32
     -m64
         Generate code for a 32-bit or 64-bit environment.  The
         32-bit environment sets int, long and pointer to 32
         bits.  The 64-bit environment sets int to 32 bits and
         long and pointer to 64 bits.

I use Sun compilers on 64-bit Solaris, as they perform a lot better
in my tests.
