I have been updating NetBSD's nhc98 package (to 1.22), and while it builds on 32-bit x86, on a 64-bit host the build dies running hmake3.config with

My best guess is the same as yours. nhc98 will only build with a 32-bit environment, since its memory model explicitly expects that. Building with a 64-bit compiler and the -m32 flag _might_ work, but as you say, it is easy to miss a place where the flag is necessary, but the build system fails to pass it through correctly.
