Regarding x86_64 CLAM and difficulties building, Michael Noble cc'd these lists but since he's probably not on them, I'll forward his message:

These are not my handiwork, and I wouldn't want to steal credit for them!
Toni Graffy is the packager, as stated at Packman. He is subscribed to clam-devel, not sure if he is on the users list.
As to x86_64, I believe that problem came up before and there was some show-stopper that made packaging everything impossible, so Toni chose to drop 64 bit. You'd have to take it up with him, though.
Regarding the rest, I'm afraid I can't offer much help...
