I doubt there is sufficient demand to justify a binary release of the
64-bit version. Moreover the real 64-bit users is probably a small
community of power users that should have no problems compiling from
source. At least SuSE ships with 64-bit binaries, so I assume 5.6.x will
be on the SuSE 10.1 dvd.

Simply make sure you install the 32-bit version of libgmp and the 32-bit
Linux RPM runs fine (at least it does on our Redhat powered Opteron
machine).
