However, the tar file already contains a 64-bit binary, so it will not be rebuilt... And I guess you try to build it on a 32-bit PC. I only tried it on a 64-bit PC myself. syslinux is full of this kind of crap :-( You can try running a 'make -C output/build/syslinux-4.04 clean', but if I remember correctly that failed for other reasons. So the problem is fixed with syslinux-4.05? That's nice! Please do submit a patch.
