Thanks.

Just one thing: are we talking about x86-64 in 64bit mode?

If yes, then did you have any other problems w/ porting?
If no, then what would be needed to make the 64bit port?
ex. is there libffi for x86-64 in 64bit mode?

PS: And how do I distinguish between x86-64 in 32 and 64bit mode
from within C program source?
