I see. Interesting... I figured Csound would be 64-bit clean by now. I've successfully compiled Csound 5 on my AMD64 machine, and it seems to work fine; are there plans to package that version? I see .deb packages in the relevant SourceForge project but no discussion about actual inclusion in Debian. > /* Steinar */ ---> Drake Wilson
