As always, if you want us to be able to help you, please be as explicit as
possible.
- "I tried setting ..." - what did you do exactly? Did you run
"./configure CPPFLAGS=-m64 LDFLAGS=-m64" in a freshly unpacked tarball,
or what else?
- "it still didn't work" - what did you expect, and what results/symptoms
did you observe?
