This is usually a sign that you are trying to link 32- and 64-bit
objects and/or libraries, which simply doesn't work.

For the Sun Compilers, you usually need to specify a flag like
  -xarch=v9

or similar to the compiler driver for compilation and linking, to create
64-bit code.

Hope that helps.  Please note that this question has nothing to do with
Libtool.

Cheers,
Ralf
