After a bit of debugging it, NetBSD Makefile does not pass any
build/target options to gmp and simply allows it to auto detect build
environment for itself.

Looks like gmp configure script is quite broken. It always defaults to
32-bit compiler options on SPARC Solaris, unless explicitly overriden
with build/target sparc64-sun-solaris2.11 option.

Other configure scripts don't have this issue, so the problem is really
gmp.
