64bit systems don't need the level of backward compatibility that
apbuild tries to enforce. With 64bit, glibc wiped the plate clean and
started fresh from 2.something so there are really not many old
systems to support.

Perhaps it's time to give apbuild an option to say which minimum GLIBC
version to target? Would be a nice thing to have
