My guess is that you need a new config.guess and config.sub. Get the
latest from:

http://savannah.gnu.org/cgi-bin/viewcvs/*checkout*/config/config/config.guess
http://savannah.gnu.org/cgi-bin/viewcvs/*checkout*/config/config/config.sub

Basically, wackamole's built-in copies of those files predated your
system.

Thanks, That did the trick. I replaced the old versions of those files with
the new ones. For some reason though, the new files don't work with the 32
bit servers -- looks like my solution may be to just have 2 tarballs, 1 for
x64 and one for x32.

My guess is that you need a new config.guess and config.sub. Get the latest
from:

http://savannah.gnu.org/cgi-bin/viewcvs/*checkout*/config/config/config.sub

Interesting -- what's the error for the 32-bit systems? Not similar, I
hope?

I'm not a GNU autotools developer, so the answer to that question will
likely not enlighten me, but if you figure out what's up, the autotools
folks would probably like to know.
