If anyone building Astlinux is using a 64bit host os, there are a few 
pacakges which currently are not compiling properly.

nistnet
netsnmp
oslec
mISDN

In the short term, I do not see us correcting this.  Long term, it will 
be corrected.

With mISDN and oslec, I'm sure it's because the packages are doing some 
sort of query to check what it's building for rather than being told 
"hey this should be built for i386".  I had to make these modifications 
to the Rhino package a few weeks back (which completely builds on a 
64bit host).

Bottom line, the packages that are not flagged as experimental should 
build correctly on a 32bit host.  Using a 64bit host will not work on 
100% of the packages.
