You also need to tell ld to create 64-bit output. This option would normally 
be passed automatically by gcc when doing the final link. In this case you 
seem to be using ld directly to do a partial link.

Passing "-m elf_x86_64" to ld should fix the problem. I'll let you figure out 
how to convince the Postgres build system to do this:)
