[M3devel] AMD-64 binaries?

[Jay]

No -- you would know best about AMD64_DARWIN.
I'm sure ALPHA_OSF used to work, but it's been so long, I don't think it counts.
 
I'm being lazy.
 
file AMD64_DARWIN/cm3cg
 => fat binary? I doubt it. 
 => with ppc, i386, amd64? (doubt it) 
 => or just ppc, i386?  (doubt it) 
 => or just i386? This is I "suspect".  
 => or just AMD64. This would be somewhat interesting. 
 
I'm pretty sure cm3cg is always 32bit "these days".
I've tried SPARC64_OPENBSD and AMD64_LINUX and they both failed in the same way.
This was a nice thing to find, that the problem is portable to multiple?all 64 bit hosts.
 
I'm ASSUMING but trying to confirm that AMD64_DARWIN has the same problem.
 
Anyway, I should really get to debugging this soon.
 
It's a bit odd because gcc itself doesn't have this bug and I reviewed a lot of the code and it was ok. I'm just going to have to step through it in parallel on 32bit and 64bit hosts and find where they diverge. A LOT was identical, like the files output by cm3 into cm3cg were identical.
I was close a few months ago but sloughed off.
