It's fine to make it a configure.in, but since there is no use of
autoconf macros here, you could instead make it just a configure.
That's simpler if you don't expect that this file will one day grow
some macro use. But either way is OK.

Fedora 15 didn't have x32, so what does that matter? The first
official Linux kernel release with x32 was 3.4, so that's what it
should say.
Thanks,
