PATCH 1/1 Building on Ubuntu 7.10 x86-64

Hi All,

I needed to do following modification in order to build grub2 on my 64bit laptop. In case there is no complaints I will commit it to CVS.

Additionally I needed to install gcc-multilib package (and normal packages like ruby, lzo...).

And after that just doing following made runnable binaries (at least in qemu):

./autogen.sh

mkdir build-x86_64
cd build-x86_64

../configure --with-platform=pc --target=x86_64

make

Thanks,
Vesa Jääskeläinen

Committed. New configure was also generated, so please report how well it works.
