Hi. After several tries and a modicum of googling, I found that
CFLAGS=-m64 ../gcc-4.4.0/configure --disable-multilib
was the magic incantation to get gcc to get into the second stage of
the boostrap. This is on a Fedora Core 10 system.
This seems to be an old issue; google turns things up dating back to
2003. I suspect that x86_64 systems are only going to be more popular
with time; the build process on those systems needs to be as easy as
for 32 bit systems.

Aharon,
I have been building gcc for several years now with no issues on x86-64 and on
Fedora Core 10 ever since it was released. What exactly has been your problem?
Its been as easy as 123. I have never had to set CCFLAGS or disable-multilib.
