Here are the steps I followed:

  1) I downloaded the 20090107 C back end ".tgz" file and installed
  it.

  2) I fetched a clean Git repository.

  3) I ran <sh etc/make-native.sh>.  (I didn't run "Setup.sh" since
  "make-native.sh" does that.)

It failed at exactly the same place as it did for Derrell:

  ;  Compiling file: "crypto.bin" => "crypto.moc"...
  ;non-pointer datum out of range 288230376151711743

I was able to build a native x86-64 version on Snow Leopard in
mid-November (but on a different machine), so I doubt that it's Snow
Leopard that makes the difference.  I wonder whether any of the recent
arithmetic fixes introduced a bug.
