There's a number of these, where environment variables are thrown up
like above, as a prefix to configure, which *should* result in a correct library
path (pkgconfig path, gcc build..), but it seems this isn't always the case. I've
redressed a few already, but there's no doubt more in the wiki wherein you
have to state the intention as an export (ie; export USE_ARCH=32 as
opposed to including it on the configure line). There appears to be multiple
reasons for this, I believe the most of which are caused by a makefile in
certain packages which call in other helper apps (xmkmf, perl, others...)
during the make process, at which time the environment variables sent
to configure are unset and the (generated makefiles..) have no way to
pass the variables onto the helper apps on which the build relies.....or 
something like this....
