In FC5, gcc has issues with the command lines used to build
hvmloader and vmxassist.  Basically, the compiler doesn't
like the combination of -m64 and -m32.  As these are 32 bit
apps, and intended to be, take a modified approach and simply
define XEN_TARGET_ARCH for 32 bits.  This cleans up the
command line and builds the images correctly.

We could also wait for a gcc fix, but...

No, this patch is sane. Putting both switches on the command line makes no sense. I wonder whether to simply put 'CFLAGS :=' *after* the include of Rules.mk though.
