Complete config.log can be found here:

Appended is an excerpt.

Also, in compiling "Hello, world" (as both root and a normal user) I
receive:
[root]# g++ -Wall hello.cc -o hello
/tmp/ccDiEsut.s: Assembler messages:
/tmp/ccDiEsut.s:10: Error: suffix or operands invalid for `push'
/tmp/ccDiEsut.s:38: Error: suffix or operands invalid for `push'

/tmp/ccDiEsut.s:94: Error: suffix or operands invalid for `pop'
/tmp/ccDiEsut.s:95: Error: suffix or operands invalid for `pop'

where the contents of hello.cc is:
#include <iostream>

int
main ()
{
 std::cout << "Hello, world!\n";
 return 0;
}

The same "Hello world" program compiles and runs just fine on 32-bit
Scientific Linux 5.4.
I've read where it's said that x86-64 has a different assembly
language and a different ABI.
I would be very interested in hearing from someone who has
successfully made SAGE
on a 64-bit version of Linux.

I can say with certainty that until your hello.cc is compiling, then there's now way you're going to be able to compile all X million lines of Sage. Most of us build Sage on 64-bit linux all the time (in fact it's possibly more common than 32-bit nowadays). I would ask on a Scientific Linux or perhaps even gcc forum.
