New description:

 Using

     * A Sun Blade 2000 running Solaris 10 update 7
     * Sage 4.1.2.rc0
     * gcc 4.4.1
     * SAGE64 exported to "yes"

 Looking at the directory $SAGE_HOME/local/lib, we can see the ''freetype''
 libraries are 32-bit, even though SAGE64 was set to "yes"
 {{{
 drkir...@swan:[~/sage/gcc64-sage-4.1.2.rc0/local/lib] $ file libfreetype*
 libfreetype.a:  current ar archive, not a dynamic executable or shared
 object
 libfreetype.la: commands text
 libfreetype.so: ELF 32-bit MSB dynamic lib SPARC32PLUS Version 1, V8+
 Required, dynamically linked, not stripped
 libfreetype.so.6:       ELF 32-bit MSB dynamic lib SPARC32PLUS Version 1,
 V8+ Required, dynamically linked, not stripped
 libfreetype.so.6.3.16:  ELF 32-bit MSB dynamic lib SPARC32PLUS Version 1,
 V8+ Required, dynamically linked, not stripped

 }}}
 This is far from the only package building 32-bit when SAGE64 is set to
 "yes" on Solaris. All of the following do, and I suspect there are many
 others too.

     * zlib #7128
     * libgpg_error #7129
     * libpng #7130
     * libcliquer #7131
     * pari #7133
     * ntl #7134
     * python #7135
     * gp #7136
     * ratpoints #7137

 mpir currently mixes 32 and 64-bit objects, so does not build at all
 #7132.

 I will sort this package out after creating a new sage-env, which exports
 all the variables properly, including the flag for building 64-bit code,
 which is not always -m64.

 Although there is no support for AIX or HP-UX in Sage yet, we could
 potentially add it - I personally own machines running AIX and HP-UX.

 IBM's compiler on AIX uses -q64, and HP's on HP-UX uses +DD64.

 The sensible way to resolve this is to add the correct flag on every
 platform. This is not a very difficult task really. Whilst any changes to
 the source that might be necessary for a port would take a lot of time,
 finding the right flags to build with should be quite easy.
