Changing processor architecture with node-gyp configure

I am trying to create a Node C Addon. Mine is a 64bit machine but I need to compile the Node C Addon as a 32 bit binary. By default, node-gyp picks up all the 64 bit libraries for compilation and linking process. ``` { "targets": [ { "cflags": [ "-m32" ], "ldflags": [ "-m elf_i386" ], "cflags_cc": [ "-fPIC -m32" ], "target_name": "hello", "sources": [ "Hello.cpp" ], } } ``` This is my bindings.gyp file. I am passing `-m32` in cflags and setting `ldflags` as `-m elf_i386`. It compiles fine but I still see `-m64` as well in the verbose output of compilation process. ``` g++ '-D_LARGEFILE_SOURCE' '-D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64' '-DBUILDING_NODE_EXTENSION' ... -fPIC -Wall -Wextra -Wno-unused-parameter -pthread -m64 -m32 -O2 -fno-strict-aliasing -fno-tree-vrp -fno-tree-sink -fno-rtti -fno-exceptions -fPIC -MMD -MF ./Release/.deps/Release/obj.target/hello/Hello.o.d.raw -c -o Release/obj.target/hello/Hello.o ../Hello.cpp ``` And It still tries to find 64 bit libraries during the linking process and fails. ``` /usr/bin/ld: skipping incompatible /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-****/4.1.2/libstdc++.so when searching for -lstdc++ /usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lstdc++ collect2: ld returned 1 exit status ``` That incompatible file is actually a soft link to `/lib64/libstdc++.so.6.0.8` I compile with `node-gyp clean configure build --verbose` How can I override this behaviour and make node-gyp compile for 32 bit architecture?
