Hi Andreas,

I have a new project on the table for which I need to get rid of the 4GB 
limitation of 32Bit processes. I therefore need a 64Bit GNUstep development 
environment (make, base, gui, back) so that I can build a GNUstep tool that is 
capable of handling more than 4GB in memory.

• OS (CentOS or Solaris 10)
• gcc
• GNUstep 64Bit build

My GNUstep tree (have been using that successfully for years now) is rather 
ancient but works fine. I have a Solaris 10 box and a machine with 
CentOS-5.4-x86_64-bin I could use for the project (both equipped with 64GM RAM).
The current GNUstep tree should build fine on solaris 8->10 with gcc, I use opencsw's gcc 4.x, need to check the actual version. There were several details to fix, so I wonder that it works for you on an old tree (or it is really old, I used to check solaris 7 almost 2 years ago!). Back then, I failed to build the 64bit versions though because of problems in a library.

It should be a matter of specifying the 64bit sparc achitecture as the compiler flag.
