Hi Nicolas,

As far as I know there has been no progress on building Mozart/Oz on
64 bit architectures.

You can run Oz quite nicely inside a 32 bit chroot, see
https://alioth.debian.org/docman/view.php/30192/21/debian-amd64-howto.html#id292205
for some (old) instructions.I don't know if there are better methods
now, but I set up such a chroot many years ago and I can confirm that
it still works fine. This way you can run the current Mozart/Oz Debian
package.

Do let us know if you make it work and have improved instructions.

cheers
k
