Ubuntu and AMD64

| I'm quite interested in helping out where I can, especially things that re
| going to make amd64 even better, so I'd be happy to test/faq/help as I
| can.

Nice to hear. :)

| As for getting mplayer running soon, I was thinking I might just whip up a
| static 32bit binary on a 32bit linux box and copy it over, but I've yet to
| investigate how practical that will be.

That should work fine, even without ia32-libs installed.

I really want to have a multiarch solution for those things, rather
than having to special-case packages like we've done with the
Openoffice.org packages as it takes a fair amount of time and doesn't
scale well at all.
