I have only been a lurker on the list, but since I stirred up all the trouble over bootloaders with my thread I should probably say something. I used lilo for my pure 64 bit system and it built just fine. Since sometime towards the end of 2004 lilo no longer requires nasm, so it can be a straight swap for grub. On the other hand adding 32 bit headers, a 32 bit glibc and a multilib gcc seems a lot to add for only one package. Just my two cents.
I was having this problem for a while, I've been working with the Silo maintainer for a few weeks now, but there is no way to build a 64 bit silo. Colo for the raq2 MIPS and Grub, also seem to have this problem. I guess a 32 Bit loader is the unwritten law for bootloaders.
