Hi Ralf, I am one step closer.

I was able to provide an extra library path to the linker but I don't know how to dis-association any 64 bit file references. /bin/sh ../libtool --tag=CXX --mode=link g++ -g -O2 -release 2.6.9 -rpath /home/jim/local/lib -m32 -L/usr/lib -L/usr/lib64 -o libpqxx.la -rpath /home/jim/local/lib binarystring.lo cachedresult.lo connection_base.lo connection.lo cursor.lo dbtransaction.lo except.lo largeobject.lo nontransaction.lo oldcursor.lo pipeline.lo prepared_statement.lo result.lo robusttransaction.lo subtransaction.lo tablereader.lo tablestream.lo tablewriter.lo transaction.lo transaction_base.lo util.lo -lpq -lpq g++ -shared -nostdlib /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-redhat-linux/4.1.2/../../../../lib64/crti.o /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-redhat-linux/4.1.2/crtbeginS.o .libs/binarystring.o .libs/cachedresult.o .libs/connection_base.o .libs/connection.o .libs/cursor.o .libs/dbtransaction.o .libs/except.o .libs/largeobject.o .libs/nontransaction.o .libs/oldcursor.o .libs/pipeline.o .libs/prepared_statement.o .libs/result.o .libs/robusttransaction.o .libs/subtransaction.o .libs/tablereader.o .libs/tablestream.o .libs/tablewriter.o .libs/transaction.o .libs/transaction_base.o .libs/util.o -L/usr/lib -L/usr/lib64 -lpq -L/usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-redhat-linux/4.1.2 -L/usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-redhat-linux/4.1.2/../../../../lib64 -L/lib/../lib64 -L/usr/lib/../lib64 -lstdc++ -lm -lc -lgcc_s /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-redhat-linux/4.1.2/crtendS.o /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-redhat-linux/4.1.2/../../../../lib64/crtn.o -m32 -Wl,-soname -Wl,libpqxx-2.6.9.so -o .libs/libpqxx-2.6.9.so /usr/bin/ld: skipping incompatible /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-redhat-linux/4.1.2/libstdc++.so when searching for -lstdc++ /usr/bin/ld: skipping incompatible /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-redhat-linux/4.1.2/libstdc++.a when searching for -lstdc++ /usr/bin/ld: skipping incompatible /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-redhat-linux/4.1.2/libgcc_s.so when searching for -lgcc_s /usr/bin/ld: warning: i386:x86-64 architecture of input file `/usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-redhat-linux/4.1.2/../../../../lib64/crti.o' is incompatible with i386 output /usr/bin/ld: warning: i386:x86-64 architecture of input file `/usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-redhat-linux/4.1.2/crtbeginS.o' is incompatible with i386 output /usr/bin/ld: warning: i386:x86-64 architecture of input file `/usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-redhat-linux/4.1.2/crtendS.o' is incompatible with i386 output /usr/bin/ld: warning: i386:x86-64 architecture of input file `/usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-redhat-linux/4.1.2/../../../../lib64/crtn.o' is incompatible with i386 output (cd .libs && rm -f libpqxx.so && ln -s libpqxx-2.6.9.so libpqxx.so) ar cru .libs/libpqxx.a binarystring.o cachedresult.o connection_base.o connection.o cursor.o dbtransaction.o except.o largeobject.o nontransaction.o oldcursor.o pipeline.o prepared_statement.o result.o robusttransaction.o subtransaction.o tablereader.o tablestream.o tablewriter.o transaction.o transaction_base.o util.o ranlib .libs/libpqxx.a creating libpqxx.la (cd .libs && rm -f libpqxx.la && ln -s ../libpqxx.la libpqxx.la) make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/jim/Download/libpqxx-2.6.9/src' Making all in test make[1]: Entering directory `/home/jim/Download/libpqxx-2.6.9/test' make[1]: Nothing to be done for `all'. make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/jim/Download/libpqxx-2.6.9/test' Making all in tools make[1]: Entering directory `/home/jim/Download/libpqxx-2.6.9/tools' g++ -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I../include/pqxx -I../include -I../include -I/usr/include -m32 -g -O2 -MT rmlo.o -MD -MP -MF .deps/rmlo.Tpo -c -o rmlo.o rmlo.cxx mv -f .deps/rmlo.Tpo .deps/rmlo.Po /bin/sh ../libtool --tag=CXX --mode=link g++ -g -O2 -m32 -L/usr/lib -L/usr/lib64 -o rmlo rmlo.o ../src/libpqxx.la -lpq -lpq mkdir .libs g++ -g -O2 -m32 -o .libs/rmlo rmlo.o -L/usr/lib -L/usr/lib64 ../src/.libs/libpqxx.so -lpq -Wl,--rpath -Wl,/home/jim/local/lib /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-redhat-linux/4.1.2/../../../../lib/crti.o: In function `call_gmon_start': (.text+0x15): undefined reference to `__gmon_start__' /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-redhat-linux/4.1.2/../../../../lib/crti.o: In function `call_gmon_start': (.text+0x1e): undefined reference to `__gmon_start__' /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-redhat-linux/4.1.2/32/crtbegin.o: In function `frame_dummy': crtstuff.c:(.text+0x70): undefined reference to `_Jv_RegisterClasses' collect2: ld returned 1 exit status make[1]: *** [rmlo] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/jim/Download/libpqxx-2.6.9/tools' make: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 Thank you, Jim _______________________________________________ Autoconf mailing list Autoconf@xxxxxxx http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/autoconf
