problems building amd64 kernel

I traced the problem to an entry I had placed in make.conf to correct 
deficiencies in some of the multimedia ports a few months ago (not correctly 
enabling MMX or SSE for amd64 builds).  removing these entries eliminated 
build problems.

1.  performed 'make clean' followed by 'make buildworld'.  Build
complained that the architecture "amd64:i386" did not exist (I think
that was the correct error message) on line 139 of Makefile.inc1 .

2.  performed 'make buildworld TARGET=amd64' to force the build target.
  Everything appeared to work until the lib/libc target was reached, at
which point an error on line 3 of syscall.S 'invalid register name %r10'.

It appears that architecture selection is not working properly, and it
prevents libc build from its compiling assembly language files.
