Looking at config.vc it looks like it expects you to set TARGET_CPU (set 
it to either AMD64 or IA64 on the nmake command-line) if it's not x86, 
so maybe that turns on some linker functionality that will take care of 
this for you.  Otherwise you can try setting LDFLAGS to have things 
added to the linker command-line.
