Re: SML Compile on 64-bit linux platform

We do not have amd64 support in the code generator/runtime yet.  
Assuming that 32-bit binaries run in 32-bit mode
on the amd64, it should be possible to modify the install and build 
scripts to do the right thing (i.e., pretend that the
machine is just an x86).
