Subject: amd64 and libffi

Hi!

I am running GNUstep on amd64, for the time being I had no problems. There were 
a couple warnings during compile (pointersize differences)
of the core packages and Gorm. Probabyl that's something that has to be 
adressed in future. I don't recall which of ffi or ffcall I used,
I will give details to tomorrow, since I don't have an amd64 machine here at 
home. During the next couple of weeks I intend to start using DO eventually,
so I think I will run into trouble regarding amd64 and foreign function calls. 
How's the actual status of DO in GNUstep?

I've just switched (yesterday) to an amd64 based desktop at work - currently
I can't get GNUstep running att all :-( Am using ffcall here, I havent
tried with libffi yet.

Does anyone have GNustep running under amd64 ?
