Sounds like something worth checking via the file command.

PA2.0W implies 64-bit so the /usr/local/mysql/bin/mysql binary and
anything it has as a dependency is likely 64-bit (one cannot mix
32-bit and 64-bit objects in the same running image).

The HP ANSI C compiler defaults to making a 32-bit binary, even on a
system running a 64-bit kernel. I don't use gcc on UX so I'm not sure
if a purportedly 64-bit gcc compiler produces 64-bit objects by
default or not, but I suppose a quick "Hello World" test could check
that via the file command on the resulting a.out.
