Summary: amd64 architecture not correctly detected

Initial Comment:
ghc 6.4 fails to build on Ubuntu Breezy for amd64, as 
it  does not disable SplitObjs.    Although ia64 (itanium) 
is detected, amd64 is not, and it has the same issues.  
  
These two lines should be inserted    
before line 364 in mk/config.mk.in:    
    
ifeq "$(TARGETPLATFORM)" "x86_64-unknown-linux"    
SplitObjs=NO   
endif
