#7139: flint always building 32-bit on Solaris even when SAGE64="yes"

Using
* A Sun Blade 2000 running Solaris 10 update 7
* Sage 4.1.2.rc0
* gcc 4.4.1
* SAGE64 exported to "yes"
Looking at the directory $SAGE_HOME/local/lib, we can see the flint
library is 32-bit, even though SAGE64 was set to "yes", so flint is
ignoring the setting of SAGE64. It should also be notes that flint ignores
CC and CXX too - see #7024
This is far from the only package building 32-bit when SAGE64 is set to
"yes" on Solaris. All of the following do, and I suspect there are many
others too.
* zlib #7128
* libgpg_error #7129
* libpng #7130
* libcliquer #7131
* pari #7133
* ntl #7134
* python #7135
* gp #7136
* ratpoints #7137
* freetype #7138
mpir currently mixes 32 and 64-bit objects, so does not build at all
#7132.
I will sort this package out after creating a new sage-env, which exports
all the variables properly, including the flag for building 64-bit code,
which is not always -m64.
Although there is no support for AIX or HP-UX in Sage yet, we could
potentially add it - I personally own machines running AIX and HP-UX.
IBM's compiler on AIX uses -q64, and HP's on HP-UX uses +DD64.
The sensible way to resolve this is to add the correct flag on every
platform. This is not a very difficult task really. Whilst any changes to
the source that might be necessary for a port would take a lot of time,
finding the right flags to build with should be quite easy.
