This happens in common/autoconf/platform.m4 in 
PLATFORM_SETUP_OPENJDK_TARGET_BITS. We make the assumption that a 
platform is either 32 or 64 bit. The test that is failing is trying to 
make sure that what's produced by the compiler matches the target cpu. I 
think it will need some tweaking to handle 31 bit platforms.
