Here's the offending part of asmcomp/amd64/emit.mlp.

The two load_symbol_addr are equivalent and the only difference in the  
rest is the Mac OSX check. /More after the code/

let emit_call s =
   if !Clflags.dlcode && not macosx
   then `call    {emit_symbol s}@PLT`
   else `call    {emit_symbol s}`

let emit_jump s =
   if !Clflags.dlcode && not macosx
   then `jmp     {emit_symbol s}@PLT`
   else `jmp     {emit_symbol s}`

let load_symbol_addr s =
   if !Clflags.dlcode
   then `movq    {emit_symbol s}@GOTPCREL(%rip)`
   else if !pic_code
   then `leaq    {emit_symbol s}(%rip)`
   else `movq    ${emit_symbol s}`


let emit_call s =
   if !Clflags.dlcode
   then `call    {emit_symbol s}@PLT`
   else `call    {emit_symbol s}`

let emit_jump s =
   if !Clflags.dlcode
   then `jmp     {emit_symbol s}@PLT`
   else `jmp     {emit_symbol s}`

let load_symbol_addr s =
   if !Clflags.dlcode
   then `movq    {emit_symbol s}@GOTPCREL(%rip)`
   else if !pic_code
   then `leaq    {emit_symbol s}(%rip)`
   else `movq    ${emit_symbol s}`

On my system dlcode is true and so is macosx so it should note be  
taking the PLT branch. There's also this ocamlbuild rule for building  
asmcomp/emit.ml from asmcomp/amd64/emit.mlp

let emit_mlp = "asmcomp"/C.arch/(if ccomptype = "msvc" then  
"emit_nt.mlp" else "emit.mlp") in
rule "emit.mlp"
   ~prod:"asmcomp/emit.ml"
   ~deps:[emit_mlp; "tools/cvt_emit.byte"]
   begin fun _ _ ->
     Cmd(S[ocamlrun; P"tools/cvt_emit.byte"; Sh "<"; P emit_mlp;
           Sh">"; Px"asmcomp/emit.ml"])
   end;;

I believe the issue is that distclean.sh does not remove ocamlopt in  
the root of the ocaml source distribution. I was able to get past the  
PLT error once I removed ocamlopt from the root of the tree and  
modified asmcomp/amd64/emit.mlp to remove the second set of emit_call  
and emit_jump functions that do not include Mac OSX checks.

I got a different error from fastworld.sh now and it does not seem to  
be related to 64 bits.
