This is happening as far back as glibc-2.3.4.20040808-r1 and is cross-platform (I tested that version on sparc64). I think I remember seeing a bug for it on bugzilla... please check there and if there isn't one, please open a new one. --Jeremy On Fri, 2005-03-18 at 07:57 -0500, [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Note also that it's not just amd64 in this regard. Sparc and PPC should seriously benefit as well, given their 32/64 heritage. Portage is headed that way, but from the discussion I've read, it's generally agreed that full package signing and security support should come first, probably with portag

It's very safe to enable. The multilib USE flag in 2004.3 enables a multilib toolchain (this is forced on in 2005.0). If you want to avoid multilib, then that means you won't be able to use 32bit applications (mozilla-bin, mplayer-bin with 32bit win codecs, openoffice-bin, etc). On Wed, 2005-02-
