There are rpms for suse 8.1 on ftp.suse.com (i386 only for obvious reasons). BTW: With glibc 2.3 the modula-3 compiler bootstrap broke (due to thread code changes as far I can see, I'm no m3 guru ...), so with very recent linux distributions you likely have problems to build the thing even on i386 (unless someone has fixed that in the meantime).
