Well, it works perfectly fine for me on a ppc64 RHEL machine at Red Hat...

I'm a bit suspicious of your method of getting a 64-bit build by
manually altering the compile/link flags.  I believe the recommended
way of switching 32/64 environment is via setarch.  I did

    ppc64 sh
    ... configure and build within sub-shell ...

and got a working 64-bit executable without doing any special pushups.
