OK, I get the GUI display on amd64 and I get a graph but I wouldn't
call it a wave, at least not a sine wave or anything I'd expect to see
created by a fluid. It looks a bit like the (v.small) beak of a bird -
a smooth arc, a sharp almost straight line down crossing the X axis, a
sharp change of direction back up towards the X axis then another
smooth arc. See http://www.linux.codehelp.co.uk/412102.png

Then how did this bug arise?

If you could confirm that the screenshot is a suitable representation
of what './xppaut ode/wave.ode' should display, I just need to expand the
patch to cope with other 64bit architectures and then we'd have an
upload that could close this bug. Do you want to upload the changes or
would you prefer an NMU?
