Yep. Isn't this obvious? Well, aside from the fact that we should say
more clearly that FB is 32 bit only. I've been using multilib
Slackware64 for a couple years. Cube ran the OHR under a 64 bit linux
many years ago.

Approaching your note in a different way, does anyone know whether
it's possible to write a wrapper library (in C) that has a 32 bit
interface, and links to 64 bit libraries?
