On the contrary.  Support for Solaris 10 x86, including support for
debugging 64-bit applications was contributed some time ago, and will
be in GDB 6.4.  Incidentally now would be a good time to check whether
it works correctly.  You can grab a snapshot at:

ftp://sources.redhat.com/pub/gdb/snapshots/current/gdb-6.3.50.20051107.tar.bz2

Please make sure that you configure and build it using a 64-bit
compiler.  Setting:

$ export CC="gcc -m64"

before running configure should do the trick.
