Subject: MySQL gem on 64-bit Solaris won't compile

Hi all,

Solaris 10 x86 on a 64-bit Xenon server...  Can anyone guess where this
is going?

root@hostname:~# gem install mysql --
--with-mysql-config=/usr/local/mysql/bin/mysql_config
Building native extensions.  This could take a while...
ERROR:  Error installing mysql:

Of course make is barfing on my 32 bit libcrypt...

root@hostname:~# file  /usr/lib/libcrypt.so
/usr/lib/libcrypt.so:   ELF 32-bit LSB dynamic lib 80386 Version 1,
dynamically linked, not stripped, no debugging information available

root@hostname:~# file
/usr/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/mysql-2.7/mysql.o
/usr/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/mysql-2.7/mysql.o:    ELF 64-bit LSB
relocatable AMD64 Version 1

root@hostname:~# file /usr/local/mysql/lib/libmysqlclient.so
/usr/local/mysql/lib/libmysqlclient.so: ELF 64-bit LSB dynamic lib AMD64
Version 1, dynamically linked, not stripped, no debugging information
available

I am assuming all this is happening because the Solaris package of MySQL
that I installed (from mysql.com) is a 64 bit package...

Short of reinstalling MySQL as a 32 bit app, (which I would prefer not
to do) can anyone make any suggestions?  I started trying to recompile
all kinds of so everything would match and got into a cycle of one thing
depending on something else, depending on something until I broke ruby,
gem, and half the system.

Thanks in advance,
Andrew
