Hi,

Yeah, I tried that and get similar configure options.  However, the
configure also dies with this:

checking for x86_64-redhat-linux-gnu-gcc... no
checking for gcc... gcc
checking for C compiler default output... configure: error: C compiler
cannot create executables
See `config.log' for more details.

config.log has:

configure:2174: gcc -O2 -g -pipe -march=i386 -mcpu=i686   conftest.c  >&5
cc1: CPU you selected does not support x86-64 instruction set
cc1: CPU you selected does not support x86-64 instruction set

So it doesn't work as expected.  The configure options that rpmbuild
generates seem to conflict.

I note that the .i386.rpm files in the x86_64 directory of sl303 look to
be the same files as those in the i386 directory.  So, I guess the
distribution build procedure just copies those files from i386 to x86_64.

Cheers,
