Howdy? In http://babayaga.neotext.ca/GProlog/ there are
gprolog-1.4.5.amd64.tar.gz and gprolog-1.4.5.sparc64.tar.gz They are a betabeta-test of some fixes Daniel made to run Gprolog on the Sparc64 OpenBSD, but they work for amd64 as well. At one point I compiled this on Linux. You will need to clean them and run configure. use gmake, too.
