The error message says it all: "You are attempting to build on a
32-bit system. Only 64-bit build environments are supported beyond
froyo/2.2."

I guess the right step to do is install a 64-bit system like Jean-
Baptiste said, however you can try to do the following steps to build
the source using a 32-bit machine.

(32 bits machine only)

-- build/core/main.mk

vi build/core/main.mk

change

ifneq (64,$(findstring 64,$(build_arch)))

to

ifneq (i686,$(findstring i686,$(build_arch)))

-- external/clearsilver/cgi/Android.mk

vi external/clearsilver/cgi/Android.mk

change

LOCAL_CFLAGS += -m64
LOCAL_LDFLAGS += -m64

to
LOCAL_CFLAGS += -m32
LOCAL_LDFLAGS += -m32

-- external/clearsilver/cs/Android.mk

vi external/clearsilver/cs/Android.mk

change

LOCAL_CFLAGS += -m64
LOCAL_LDFLAGS += -m64

to
LOCAL_CFLAGS += -m32
LOCAL_LDFLAGS += -m32


-- external/clearsilver/java-jni/Android.mk

vi external/clearsilver/java-jni/Android.mk

change

LOCAL_CFLAGS += -m64
LOCAL_LDFLAGS += -m64

to
LOCAL_CFLAGS += -m32
LOCAL_LDFLAGS += -m32

-- external/clearsilver/util/Android.mk

vi external/clearsilver/util/Android.mk

change

LOCAL_CFLAGS += -m64
LOCAL_LDFLAGS += -m64

to
LOCAL_CFLAGS += -m32
LOCAL_LDFLAGS += -m32
