[ewg] RE: [ofa-general] Using --build32 on 32 bits machine (OFED-1.3 GA )

[Moshe Kazir]

Vlad,

I fixed it in my env and continued  ....

In the install.pl comments is written that --build32 is used for x86_64
and ppc64. 

so the install create a rpmbuild -m32 .... line .  The -m32 is the
reason for the compile problem.

When the -m32 is removed very thing is o.k. .

So in my patch I permit --build32 to be activated only if the machine is
64 bits machine.

To reproduce the bug simply run ./install.pl with build32 activated on
32 buit HW .

Moshe
