Not quite.  All versions of the Cray X1 compiler will produce 64 bit
DWARF unconditionally.  Versions 5.2 and earlier of the Cray X1 compiler
produce the SGI "special" version of 64-bit dwarf.  Versions 5.3 and later
follow the DWARF 3 method of differentiating 32- and 64-bit.

Reason for Cray being the same as SGI:  Cray was a part of SGI until it was
sold to Terra in 2000.

However, since there currently is no support in binutils/GDB for the Cray X1,
the point is rather moot.  :-)
