Since NSIS only compiles 32-bit installers anyway, I added the option to
compile for a 32-bit host. Now "makensis" works on my amd64 host,
cross-compiling for a 32-bit Windows target.
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
diff -r -c nsis-2.23-src/SCons/Config/gnu nsis-2.23-works/SCons/Config/gnu

Unfortunately, I don't know anything about the ebuild system other than from a
user's perspective, so I don't know if (a) this patch even makes sense (though
it definitely works for me), and (b) how to submit it properly, if it does. I'm
submitting it here in case it interests anyone.
I think nsis can be installed on a amd64 host without this patch, but I didn't
had the time to test it. Try to install it as is - it installs only one native
executable, namely makensis.
