in a big way, that's actually non-applicable. afaik, there is no way, without emulation (and let's not go there) to let a 32-bit program use 64-bit libs or vice versa -- the abi's are simply incompatible. my method of getting 32-bit opengl programs to run at native speeds doesn't involve mixing libs because every single lib needed by the 32-bit program must be a 32-bit lib -- it's just communicating with the x server via sockets or other networking, and is otherwise directly rendering its output to the video card.

in other words, there is no linking between 32-bit and 64-bit apps/libs, and no matter what, when you're talking about x, you're forced to talk about sockets and x connections.

heh, don't worry coyote, i can write up an equiv that applies to debian (and for the most part, debian derivatives) that won't even violate the dfsg -- you can print mine on toilet paper if you wanted (once i get off my ass, sit down, and type it out).
