q66 8d0afa8438 nspr: fix ppc64 support, and --enable-64bit on aarch64
The latter is for correctness. It only currently affects SPARC
builds it seems, but enable it in case it's needed in the future.

The patch is something I figured out while debugging why Firefox
would crash on startup.

set a minimum stack size on ppc64 to prevent crashes
Firefox, a user of nspr, attempts to set a stack size of 32k in its
JS watchdog, which the pthreads impl doesn't like and fails.
Coincidentally, nspr here is compiled with debug on, which means it has
assertions turned on; under normal circumstances, those would be disabled,
the stack size set call would fail and everything would fall back on the
default 2M stacksize, but it would still be wrong - therefore, establish
a minimum, just like for aarch64.
