 I assume I need a special 64 bit machine to do this.
 I don't know whether I have access to one.

 Ok, thanks.  I didn't know dejagnu knew about multilibs.
 
 As far as I know nobody has ever tried libgcj on a 64-bit Sparc box
 before.  It sounds like this requires actual debugging; I was hoping
 it was some relatively simple thing.
