Hi,

please ask Eric Lowe.
I did not prepare the x64/x86 stuff.
And the sdl amd64 bit patch is also from him.
The diff is not very big, that's true.
But it is not zero, I don't know.
I didn't build sdl for x64 so far.

I'm mostly "the sparc guy".
I had been busy all week long in improving the src to better support
sparc-hosts.
Therefore didn't I come to amd64 so far, while I do intend to asap.

See my diff from yesterday (which is meanwhile totally obsolete again) :

http://www.martux.org/qemu/qemu-0.8.2-solaris__20061010x11.gdiff

Pls. gimme time until I throw the sparc pkg out before I can deeper look
into amd64-HOST support.


Thanks,
Martin

The SDL patch is from Juergen Zimmermann.

I have not had any problems building 64-bit using --prefix /wherever/i/please to both QEMU and SDL's configure scripts; note that adding wherever libSDL winds up ($PFX/bin) to your PATH prior to configuring QEMU is a requirement so that QEMU will link to the right spot....

Before I finally go:

I just learned, that the term "stuff" has a negative side-meaning:
http://dict.tu-chemnitz.de/dings.cgi?lang=en&service=en-de&opterrors=0&optpro=0&query=stuff&dlink=self&comment=
That was by no means my intention !
Further: I didn't mention, that Eric Lowe is the guy, who ported the
BSD-kqemu-wrapper to Solaris x86 and x64.

Cool!
Well done !!
