That suggests you have a --disable-multilib compiler.

You can use build-many-glibcs.py to build an x86_64 compiler that supports 
all of -m64, -m32, -mx32 (build-many-glibcs.py <dir> checkout; 
build-many-glibcs.py <dir> host-libraries; build-many-glibcs.py <dir> 
compilers x86_64-linux-gnu).  Having got that compiler (in 
<dir>/install/compilers/x86_64-linux-gnu) you can then use it for building 
/ testing glibc manually (including running execution tests in such a 
build - make sure to copy libstdc++ and libgcc_s shared libraries from the 
right multilib to the build directory before running make check) if you 
want.
