issue 10 days ago.  I haven't found a solution, either.  For me it has not
been a priority - I was just doing some due ​diligence by testing out a
build script in a 64 bit Ubuntu installation after it had worked fine in a
32 bit installation.  I happen to be using Xastir on a 2009 Intel Atom
based machine, so not being able to build it in the 64 bit version doesn't
impact my actual usage.  I hope it gets figured out soon - 64 bit should be
fairly common now.
