or using the upcoming x32 ABI with KEYWORDS=amd64 ?

if a package has a configure flag to control "64bitness", it is absolutely 
broken.  figure out what exactly the "64bitness" means (pointer size ?  data 
width ?  assumptions about size of long ?) and replace it with a proper 
configure time check.  then the whole 64 configure flag can be thrown away.
