I did search through the database but I didn't find anything.  Hopefully, this
is not a dupe.

When running configure of Firefox 1.0.3 on an Ultra 5 w/ 64-bit Solaris 9
(SPARC) installed, I noticed that it's not detecting Solaris 9 as a 64-bit
operating system.  Solaris on Ultra hardware has been 64-bit for several years.
My O/S installation is definitely 64-bit as isainfo -b returns "64".

I don't know how or if this impacts Firefox's functionality; however, it is
clearly not correct.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Run ./configure
2.
3.

Actual Results:  
checking for 64-bit OS... no


Expected Results:  
checking for 64-bit OS... yes
OS: other → Solaris
Hardware: Other → Sun
Version: unspecified → 1.0 Branch
