This is a potentially complicated problem. For starters one can try
just doing
export CFLAGS="-m64"
and make in the sage tarball. But then already bzip2 fails to build,
because many basic OSX libraries are 32-bit only right now.
So instead one must go package-by-package. This is controlled by
setting
export SAGE64="yes"
then modifying the spkg-install scripts for individual packages.

Here's what I hope you could try:
(1) Build SAGE-2.0 from source on your computer if you haven't already,
just to see how it works.
(2) Try modifying an spkg, any one. They're in
SAGE_ROOT/spkg/standard
and are just tar bzip2'd files. They way they work is that at build
time they are extracted to SAGE_ROOT/spkg/build, and the
spkg-install script is run with some environment variables pre-set.
(3) Write back to me.
NTL is the first thing in the build that breaks though, if I build
64-bit GMP (with or without?) your patch.
