Right. We need an AMD64 guru to fix this for us, if it is fixable at all.
AMD64 can of course execute 32 bit code, but the question is whether you need
to do a mode switch for that and whether the switching command is privileged.
Maybe a nice kernel hacker stops by and helps us out, because it would be
really cool to use the 32 bit Windows and Real libraries on a 64 bit Linux.
