I did what you suggested, adding /lib64 to /etc/ld.so.conf, and rerunning 
ldconfig. But now the program segfaults.

% sparc64-linux-gcc -m64 -o hello hello.c
% ./hello
Segmentation fault

It doesn't dump core, either. (not that my 32-bit gdb would do much good)

By the way, how difficult would it be to use a file in /etc to determine 
the 64-bit library location (such as, maybe /etc/ld64.so.conf)?

Sincerely,
