Description:
When building a 32-bit server binary on a 64-bit Solaris machine, the build fails due to 64-bit code being generated by 'dtrace -G'. Build log:

gmake[2]: Entering directory `/export/home/kaa/src/mysql-5.4.2-beta/sql'
providers=`(for i in . ../mysys ../storage/archive ../storage/blackhole ../storage/csv ../storage/example ../storage/federated ../storage/heap ../storage/innobase ../storage/myisammrg ../storage/myisam ../storage/ndb; do cat $i/dtrace_providers 2>/dev/null; done) | tr " " "\n" | sort | uniq | sed -e '/^$/d' -e 's/^/-s /'`; \

Horst, kinly please test this on Azalea and Summit and report if it is fixed. If it is, then please close this bug, otherwise set it back to Verified and unassign yourself.

Still reproducible on mysql-next-mr on a Solaris 10 machine. Not reproducible on OpenSolaris anymore.

We have Solaris 10 sparc32 builds in pushbuild for mysql-next-mr and the build works there. Please provide more details about environment and compiler used.

No feedback was provided for this bug for over a month, so it is
being suspended automatically. If you are able to provide the
information that was originally requested, please do so and change
the status of the bug back to "Open".
