Building 32-bit binaries on Solaris

[Alan Bateman]

I'm on a Solaris SPARC system and by default the new build generates 
solaris-sparcv9 binaries. I'm looking to create 32-bit binaries which is 
the default on the old build system (unless you specify ARCH_DATA_MODEL) 
and trying to figure out the options to specify to configure. The guide 
suggests that --with-host-bits is Windows only. Is a build of 32-bit 
binaries considered a cross compile and should I specify --host?
