It seems that for an unknown reason, the makefile wants to make a 64-bit 
build. It wants to compile using gcc -m64. However, you probably don't 
have 64-bit libraries on your system. Try to compile an Hello, World 
with such option: it will probably fail.

Check your environment, especially the CC and CFLAGS variables. They 
should be empty.

I may be totally wrong, so good luck.
