I'd factor out `-m32` though, i.e., use `$CFLAG32` in the second attempt
and add
{{{
#!sh
if [[ -z $CFLAG32 ]]; then
CFLAG32=-m32
fi
}}}
or
{{{
#!sh
: ${CFLAG32=-m32} # doesn't invalidate an empty setting ("")
}}}
or the like (at the top level), such that porting people can adapt it to
whatever they need.
