It's the default on my platform (GNU/Linux/amd64).

This "obvious" way is plain wrong. First, --build means:

`--build=BUILD-TYPE'
     the type of system on which the package is being configured and
     compiled.

So, setting this is pointless, unless you also set --host.

Secondly, the value `x86_64' is wrong. It should be CPU-OS-VENDOR.
On GNU/Linux/amd64 it's x86_64-linux-gnu (or something like that).

This one should work. If not, set --host AND --build (host == build,
otherwise autoconf will think you are cross compiling and will get
it wrong). Unfortunately, I don't know that magic string for your OS.

Best regards,
