As clarified by Lutz the issue is that kernel 64-bitness is not checked
at all, whenever gcc is used and 'getconf KERNEL_BITS' is never invoked.
The subject line should have read "32/64-bit detection on HPUX 11.11 for
gcc builds."

Why? If it should be sufficient to invoke 'getconf KERNEL_BITS' to cover
even impossible cases? Or can you really confirm that 'getconf
KERNEL_BITS' fails on your system if actually called? A.
