To follow up these instructions.  Debian includes a script called
linux32 which creates an environment in which 'uname' will report that
it is running on an i686 processor.  I presume other distributions
have something similar (e.g. similar functionality is provided by
'setarch').

With this script it is not necessary to modify Mozart sources at all,
just run configure as:

# linux32 ../mozart/configure --prefix= ... etc ....
# make bootstrap
# make install

and you will have a 32 bit mozart runnable in your 32 bit chroot.

Thanks a lot, Kevin, for this precious information! I suggest that the upcoming release comes with a special note "for 64 bits architectures" on the download web page.

I'm thinking to a FAQ entry: "I accidentally bought a 64 bit machine at the weekend. Can I run Mozart on it?" ;-)

Cheers,
raph
