Fair enough, I can easily keep this change locally. (FYI, in this particular case the wrapper is actually a generic arch-based dispatch binary used for many other binaries as well: you symlink /bin/prog to /bin/arch_dispatch, and then /bin/prog32 or /bin/prog64 gets called, ultimately probably the dispatcher should be fixed to pass 'prog' instead of 'prog32' or 'prog64' as argv[0].) - Maciej
