I've tried adding -m64 to LDFLAGS before exporting that. That does not help.
Also, the Sun linker has this option -64 (note, no letter 'm').

DESCRIPTION
The link-editor, ld, combines relocatable object files by
resolving symbol references to symbol definitions, together
<snip>
OPTIONS
The following options are supported.
-32 | -64
Creates a 32-bit, or 64-bit object.
By default, the class of the object being generated is
determined from the first ELF object processed from the
command line. If no objects are specified, the class is
determined by the first object encountered within the
first archive processed from the command line. If there
are no objects or archives, the link-editor creates a
32-bit object.
The -64 option is required to create a 64-bit object
solely from a mapfile.
The -32 or -64 options can also be used in the rare case
of linking entirely from an archive that contains a mix-
ture of 32 and 64-bit objects. If the first object in
the archive is not the class of the object that is
required to be created, then the -32 or -64 option can
be used to direct the link-editor.

I tried adding that to LDFLAGS. Again it did not help. The *only* solution I can
find to date is to create a script which invokes gcc with the -m64 option, but
that is a horrible hack.
