crosscompiling - the saga continues

Well, once again I have failed to get the 2.4.23 kernel to crosscompile. I went to the alioth http site and specifially downloaded and dpkg --force-all installed the biarch versions of gcc/libc/g++/etc. I think I am doing something stupid since from the error messages it looks like gcc isn't even _trying_ to generate AMD64 assembly:

Any sort of help appreciated .

P.S. Suggestion: it would be _very_ nice if you guys set up a complete biarch set so that I could just do a debootstrap and not have to worry about getting X packages from the main distro and Y packages from alioth and still not getting it right :)
