[MLUG] any improvements in 64-bit Linux support (under Ubuntu)?

[Jonathan King]

We've got a 64-bit AMD system running Feisty Fawn at home, and it was
(relatively speaking) hell on wheels to get things set up due to the
lack of support for 64-bit architectures. Is this expected to change
in the near future? If not, how much would we be missing if we just
went for everything under the 32-bit world in Gutsy Goldfish (or
whatever)? In particular, Flash is *still* not 64-bit, which is a
major pain, and it looks like you would still need both 32 and 64 bit
tool-chains to get everything else you might want compiled correctly.
