32-bit static build of parrot error

[D S Khudia]

Hello Parrot-Developers,

I am trying to build a 32-bit statically linked binary of parrot (2.6) on a
Redhat machine (Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 5.2 (Tikanga)).
The following is the configure command I am using.

*perl Configure.pl --m=32 --parrot_is_shared=0 --linkflags=-static*

(If I do not provide static it tries to link with shared library of parrot
which is not present with parrot_is_shared=0)

The make command after above configure fails (while building
blib/lib/libparrot.so.2.6.0 ) with following error.

/usr/bin/ld: warning: i386 architecture of input file `src/string/api.o' is
> incompatible with i386:x86-64 output

....

....



So I removed the *-m64* flag from the Makefile.

After removing *-m64* from the Makefile, I am getting following error.

 gcc -m32 -o pbc_to_exe pbc_to_exe.o
