Problem compiling nginx-0-6-34 on CentOS 5.2 x86_64

[mike]

I believe I had issues on RHEL 5.x myself, and I solved it by removing
the 32-bit libraries (most things I were compiling were confused
between the 64-bit and 32-bit and it wound up mixing the two,
resulting in compilation errors)

I wish they would work like Ubuntu which has made it pure 64-bit
without default installing 32-bit libs as well.
