Hm, I need to learn the make system ;)

The compilation took my flags:

  gcc  Unicode.m -c  [...] -m64 -mcpu=v9 [...] -o shared_obj/Unicode.o 

but the "object merge" (?) did not:

  gcc  -nostdlib -r  [...]  -o ./shared_obj/subproject.o <objects>
  <path-to-ld>/ld: Relocatable linking with relocations from format
elf64-sparc
         (shared_obj/GSCategories.o) to format elf32-sparc
         (./shared_obj/subproject.o) is not supported

The problem was that I compiled and installed the _make_ package with

   CFLAGS="-m64 -mcpu=v9" ./configure

rather than

   CC="gcc -m64 -mcpu=v9" ./configure

Apparently it makes a difference, as my config.make in GNUstep
system area (I discovered this file only now) held
   CC       = gcc 
   OPTFLAG  = -m64 -mcpu=v9

Changind those variables to
   CC       = gcc -m64 -mcpu=v9
   OPTFLAG  =
solved the problem.
 
Thank you, Adam.

Tima.
