Everything runs very nicely in 64-bit [by everything i mean everything which is proposed for Integration in this collection of ARC Cases -- PCRE, CURL, IDN, PHP, Apache, etc]. For me, providing 64-bit builds entails two things: 1. Updating the FastTracks to reflect this fact 2. Creating 64-bit builds It is not *that* bad. It is one extra week at most. --Stefan -- Stefan Teleman Sun Microsystems, Inc. Stefan.Teleman at Sun.COM
