migrating to 64 bit

Hi,
   I am migrating open source packages from redhat EL5 on 32 bit 
machines to 64 bit machines.
   I found a problem with some packages that now need the -m32 flag 
passed into gcc for
   the executable to work properly.

   w3c-libwww appears to not have the -m32 flag, and the linker, ld 
complains when I link to it with  a mix
   of files some built to run in 32 bit mode and some built 64 bit.

  Is there a way to configure  w3c-libwww for the 32 bit mode on a 64 
bit box?

thank you,

Okay, so you are trying to build target 32 bit executables under a 64
bit host ?

Were you trying something like,

  $ CFLAGS="-m32"  ./configure --target=i686

If so, where did it fail ?

For some reason, it seems to drop the compiler flag when generating the
modules/expat/libtool . . .

However, going back in and adding the compiler flag after running
configure and before running make seems to work.

For example, the difference would be something like,

1st CFP: IJCAI-11 Workshop on Discovering Meaning On the Go in Large & Heterogeneous Data (LHD-11)

Apologies for cross-posting

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Call for papers for LHD-11 workshop at IJCAI-11, July 2011, Barcelona:

Discovering Meaning On the Go in Large & Heterogeneous Data

http://dream.inf.ed.ac.uk/events/lhd-11/
------------------------------------------------------------------------------

An interdisciplinary approach is necessary to discover and match meaning
dynamically in a world of increasingly large data.  This workshop aims
to bring together practitioners from academia, industry and government
for interaction and discussion.  The workshop will feature:

*  A panel discussion representing industrial and governmental input,
entitled "Big Society meets Big Data: Industry and Government
Applications of Mapping Meaning".  Panel members will include:
 *  Peter Mika (Yahoo!)
 *  Alon Halevy (Google)
 *  Tom McCutcheon (Dstl)
 *  (tbc)
*  An invited talk from Fausto Giunchglia, discussing the relationship
between social computing and ontology matching;
*  Paper and poster presentations;
*  Workshop sponsored by: Yahoo! Research, W3C and others
