I think SAGE64 is useful on system that have a 64 bits kernel but have a 32 bits default userland. On such system you can compile in either 32 or 64 bits mode but the default is 32. SAGE64 express your wish to do a 64 bits build on such platform. It is useless if you have a full 64 bits system like your fedora machine.
