I build in a different directory then the source directory and
completely remove the object directory after builds.  This is a
configure problem.

Well, I don't know if this should be needed but I was able to fix the
problem by adding the use of the 'sizeof-long-4' test to the
testlist.  This test fails with 'cc +DD64' since that has an 8 byte long
and we then correctly used the ABI=64 setting.  I am tempted to say we
should add 'any_64_testlist="sizeof-long-8" too just to be sure.  I
don't know if that is considered a reasonable thing to do or not.  I
don't see any targets checking both long-4 and long-8.
