On a 32-bit SPARC userland, configure fails to compile assembly and the
build fails:
checking for options to compile assembly... configure: error: could not compile assembly
config.log shows:
asm-tests/sparc64.S: Assembler messages:
asm-tests/sparc64.S:5: Error: Architecture mismatch on "lduw [%o4+4],%o4".
asm-tests/sparc64.S:5: (Requires v9|v9a|v9b|v9c|v9d|v9e|v9v|v9m|m8; requested architecture is sparclite.)

Simply moving these blocks earlier in configure.ac is sufficient to
ensure that the tests are executed with the appropriate flags
(specifically -m64 in this case).

This is GRUB 2, the second version of the GRand Unified Bootloader. GRUB 2 is rewritten from scratch to make GNU GRUB cleaner, safer, more robust, more powerful, and more portable. See the file NEWS for a description of recent changes to GRUB 2. See the file INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install the GRUB 2 data and program files. Please visit the official web page of GRUB 2, for more information. The URL is <http://www.gnu.org/software/grub/grub.html>. More extensive documentation is available in the Info manual, accessible using 'info grub' after building and installing GRUB 2. There are a number of important user-visible differences from the first version of GRUB, now known as GRUB Legacy. For a summary, please see: info grub Introduction 'Changes from GRUB Legacy'
