CentOS - Nov 2005 - Generate 32bit programs on x86_64 architecture?

I'm trying to run purify on CentOS on an Intel Pentium 4/630
processor.  Purify does not like the 64bit code.  Is there
some way to compile and run programs so that they are
only using the 32 bit model?

I tried gcc -m32 but then the system libraries come
up missing.

Purify engine: Error: Couldn't open the file crt1.o

Purify engine: Error: Couldn't open the file crti.o

Purify engine: Error: Couldn't resolve library directive: -ltcl8.4,
(couldn't find library libtcl8.4.so or libtcl8.4.a).

Purify engine: Error: Couldn't resolve library directive: -ldl,
(couldn't find library libdl.so or libdl.a).

Purify engine: Error: Couldn't resolve library directive: -lieee,
(couldn't find library libieee.so or libieee.a).

Purify engine: Error: Couldn't resolve library directive: -lm,
(couldn't find library libm.so or libm.a).

Purify engine: Error: Couldn't resolve library directive: -lc,
(couldn't find library libc.so or libc.a).

Purify engine: Error: Couldn't open the file crtn.o

Purify engine: Error: Couldn't resolve library directive: -ldl,

Yup, -m32 is the correct option.  What you are missing are 32-bit 
development packages.  Check for and install (and I mean install, not 
update, you want to have both i386 and x86_64 development packages) i386 
versions of glibc-devel and libgcc.  Depending on what you are trying to 
compile, you might need other i386 development packages.  As you'll 
notice, x86_64 distribution contains both i386 and x86_64 versions of 
almost all libraries, however only i386 runtime gets installed by 
default, you must add development parts for i386 manually.  For example, 
to compile C++ stuff, you'll need i386 libstdc++-devel.  Esiest way to 
find out what you need to install is to locate 64-bit version of library 
that you probably already have installed, and then do for example rpm 
-qf /usr/lib64/libwhatever.so and see what package it belongs to 
(probably whatever-devel), and install i386 version of it.
