Yep, that seems like the best solution to me.

I am sure there are other Linux boxen where the default gcc produces
binaries for the 32 bit ABI on a 64 bit box, so this seems like more
than a fix for an unusual configuration with pathscale's cc.

Yeah, let's see if the Sage 3.4.1.rc4 build cycle flushes anything
else out of the woodworks. I should know in about 24 hours.
