Both 32 and 64 bits versions fail miserably for me on Fedora 14 64
bits. However, on an amd64 Debian Sid box, only the amd64 binary works,
not the i386 one.

So I think it's not directly related to architecture but rather to an
environment problem. And that "Just try the i386 version" is not a
sufficient workaround.

Cheers,
