Just because your cpu can't run 64bit code does not mean that
it cannot build 64bit code.

Our makefiles are setup to build all possible architectures for
a family (ie, x64/x86 vs sun4u/sun4v). I don't believe that hacking
them to do cpu capability detection and not build bits is a viable
use of anybody's time.

I don't know why you're not getting Makefile.master.64 - perhaps
you rm'd it? In any case, you should be able to get a copy of it
by running (from the top of your tree, ie, above usr/src):


$ hg revert -r tip usr/src/Makefile.master.64
