        If you are building on a 32-bit only system, you need to configure
with --disable-aix64 so that it does not try to build 64-bit libraries. GCC currently expects to be able to run executables in all multilib modes
when building natively.
(Someone please let me know if this is not correct)

I *think* you can go into kdb as root and type "stat" and the second line will tell you if you have a cpu capable of 64 bit operations.
You can build 64 bit libraries in 32 bit mode -- it depends upon your  
processor type.  kdb will tell you that.  Its probably somewhere in  
ODM as well.
HTH,
