I had same problem last month. -m64  was passed to it.

+.if empty(OPSYS:MDarwin)
+BUILDLINK_TRANSFORM+=  rm:-m64
+.endif

I also had:

+# Note that Python 3 or later is not yet supported.
+PYTHON_VERSIONS_ACCEPTED=      27 26 25 24

But I had other problems running it, for example:

I didn't look further then as I started a winter holiday and forgot :)

(I was hoping to run qemu-system-arm on a MacMini to emulate a Raspberry 
Pi, so I could add raspbian to a development build/test farm.)
