What does--enable-64-bit-bfd mean anyway? Thinko in bfd-in.h?

No.  A bfd_vma must be at least 64 bits if any target is 64-bit (the
main one or others selected by --enable-targets), or if
--enable-64-bit-bfd.  A bfd_vma may also be 64 bits if the host is
64-bit (when unsigned long is 64-bit).

Printing a bfd_vma is a separate question.  See bfd.c:bfd_fprintf_vma.
