Well I'd like to mention that the -m64 check is nice for some packages because
they were originally designed and only supported on 32bit (like wine) and 
their
configure scripts check for this and removing the -m64 flag might cause
configure to pass, since it's only checking for if gcc -c works (iirc this 
might
have changed) and on 64 bit systems gcc -c test.c -o test.o -m32 does work
successfully, it's really the linking that fails.  I honestly liked having the
-m64 there, even though its redundant because its a nice check for these 32bit
_required_ packages.  I don't have objections to removing the -m64 from the
archspecs if the issue above is addressed properly.
