I don't think this is the sole cause of the problem. I have glibc 2.2.4, which 
(according to my hand-checking) includes the fix for R_SPARC_UA32 
mentioned in an earlier message:

...but still C++ programs have bus errors.

Perhaps a related issue could be that I overrode the default behavior of 
the 32->64 cross compiler to copy all the system headers into 
$PREFIX/sparc64-linux/sys-includes 
and instead symlinked that directory to 
$PREFIX/include
I don't know what else the problem might be. Must I upgrade to a CVS 
version of binutils? (I have 2.11)

Would it help if I build gdb and tried to figure out the source of the error 
more precisely, or is this well-known?

Sincerely,
