binary conversion
Why would a binary which was compiled on a Solaris-10 not be runnable in a SunOS 5.10? (they are supposed to be precisely equivalent).
When I run the file command on it, it says:
ELF 32-bit LSB executable 80386 Version 1, dynamically linked, not stripped, no debugging information available
The only difference is that it is built on an x86 machine as can be seen above and the target machine which it fails to run in is a SPARC, why should that make a difference, if there are NO system calls? (OS is same!!)
Is there anyway on the source mahcine I can make it in such a way as to be able to run on the SPARC machine? (NOte: I cannot build it on target machine, long story - previous post).
Thanks.

config.guess
CONFIG.GUESS(1) User Commands CONFIG.GUESS(1)
NAME
config.guess - guess the build system triplet
SYNOPSIS
config.guess [OPTION]
DESCRIPTION
The GNU build system distinguishes three types of machines, the `build' machine on which the compilers are run, the `host' machine on which
the package being built will run, and, exclusively when you build a compiler, assembler etc., the `target' machine, for which the compiler
being built will produce code.
This script will guess the type of the `build' machine.
Output the configuration name of the system `config.guess' is run on.
Operation modes:
-h, --help
print this help, then exit
-t, --time-stamp
print date of last modification, then exit
-v, --version
print version number, then exit
ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES
config.guess might need to compile and run C code, hence it needs a compiler for the `build' machine: use the environment variable
`CC_FOR_BUILD' to specify the compiler for the build machine. If `CC_FOR_BUILD' is not specified, `CC' will be used. Be sure to specify
`CC_FOR_BUILD' is `CC' is a cross-compiler to the `host' machine.
CC_FOR_BUILD a native C compiler, defaults to `cc'
CC a native C compiler, the previous variable is preferred
