The simplest thing to do is not to set it at all.  This used to be a
requirement and the build would fail without it.  With recent Base
releases this variable will be automatically set by Make each time it
runs if it is not set in the process environment.

If you do set it (to do the 32-bit build on 64-bit host trick) then you
should set it as an environment variable in the shell where you run "make".
