I think it is an interesting idea, especially once we have prefixed |
14 |
installs and perl, python, etc. will all have to be compiled before |
15 |
portage will be happy. |

I have been experimenting with 64-bits as well. I was able to compile a |
18 |
few things like libxml2 using 64-bits, enabling 64-bits applications |
19 |
that use those libraries to link against them and use them. This is |
20 |
great, and once portage supports it, I'd like to have 64-bits versions |
21 |
of zlib, etc. to be able to have true 64-bits application userland. |

Considering Fink doesn't do this and I've seen many requests for MonetDB |
23 |
using 64-bits on OSX Tiger, I guess some people would be really happy if |
24 |
they just installed a ~50MB Gentoo thinger and then be able to compile |
25 |
and use MonetDB using 64-bits on their Macs... |
