Right-o.  Looking at the emulations error message would have
helped me seeing that. :-)

If you mean the FIXME implies the problem, I don't see how;
according to it, things should work.  (I think it's just
supposed to point out that you need --enable-64-bit-bfd to get
all emulations on a 32-bit host.)  The problem is two lines
below that; the code using "if test x${want64} = xtrue; then"
should have used the same "case ${host64}-${target64}-${want64}
in" construct as in bfd/configure.in.
