Building 64-bit on Tiger is problematic in general and I advise you not to do it.
Building 64-bit on PowerPC isn't particularly useful unless you need to access more than 4GB of memory from a single program.
Building glib2 64-bit on PowerPC has already been reported not to work in #31221 it's a different error message and there is a patch there; does that help this issue as well? I don't have a G5 to test this with.
