that means that it works *only* on x86, not amd64 in this case. 
 
Comment 3 Wojciech Potentas 2005-07-08 04:47:07 UTC
and there is no way of use x86_64 to x86 backward compatibilyty, is there?
Comment 4 Martin Schlemmer (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2005-07-08 05:09:26 UTC
Multilib and compile it 32bit?

Tried it, compiles ok using multilib. Unfortunately it fails to run complaining
about lack of vm86plus kernel support which is apparently not available in an
x86_64 kernel.
