Remove the M64 variable and all related architecture-specific overrides
from the Makefile. The -m64 flag is unnecessary because GCC defaults to
generating code for the native architecture. On 64-bit systems it
produces 64-bit binaries automatically, and on 32-bit systems the flag
causes build failures.

This change fixes builds on i686 and 32-bit powerpc architectures,
which were broken after commit 5bd4be43bc5b ("Makefile: Remove
redhat-specific checks")removed the RPMCFLAGS conditional that previously
allowed RPM builds to override the internal compiler flags. Rather than
adding M64 overrides for each 32-bit architecture, removing the flag
entirely is the cleaner solution since it provides no benefit on any platform.
