Yup 64 bit fixes are already in cvs (both 1.0 and 1.1 tree).

1.1 tree does the yasm testing already, so adding x86_64 is
quite easy.

Do these tarballs have updated files compared to what you
advertised a few days ago directly to me, just in case i need
to update something on my side...

Btw did you have the time to look at the head branch for the
missing _add functions (hpel code) ?

PS: PPC port will monopolize my today's time, tomorrow i'll
start adding your 64bit asm files to head.
