Re: [Linux-ia64] 32 bit compatibility on IA-64

Josue-

I was hoping nobody would run across this.  The IBM JRE that Oracle
is using is using a horrible interface that is disgustingly specific
to IA32 that I was hoping I could forget about.  Now that you need
it I'll have to implement it for IA64.

As a complete aside, can I ask why are you installing the IA32 Oracle
on your IA64 machine?  I believe that there is an IA64 version available
that might make more sense.
