compiling 32 bit application on 64 bit linux(x86_64)

hi all,
i have a 64 bit linux machine.

$uname -a
Linux SVRDELLD30 2.6.9-42.ELsmp #1 SMP Tue Aug 15 10:35:26 BST 2006 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

here by default gcc creates 64 bit executable. but for some reason i want to create 32bit executable.

first i want to create 32 bit object files(.o files) and then i want to link those object files.

Please suggest me suitable gcc options.

Thanks and Regards,
uttam hoode
