Well, with a super nasty hack I've been able to successfully build an
AVR toolchain without using that cross-libc!

The issue is that, at least on x86_64, the avr-libc build happens
without the __x86_64__ preprocessor definition.  Adding it manually
with the make flag 'CFLAGS=-D__x86_64__' yields a successful build.
Does anyone have an idea what is going wrong here?  If so, how can we
make sure that all platforms will build this thing correctly?  I use
avr-gcc on ARM machines, for example.

Thanks,

- Dave
