The configure script do not detect the x86_64 architecture as an x86 architecture.
Created attachment 40 [details] Detect x86_64 architecture
Actually that doesn't solves it all. The architecture flag need to be -march=nocona on my Intel box and not -march=x86_64
I committed your fix plus I also changed configure not to set any value at all for -march if the architecture is x86_64. -march=nocona is not good for AMD cpus, -march=x86-64 is undocumented and I guess that the compiler can create optimized code anyway, as it already knows that the architecture is 64 bit.
