It supports now Linux x86-64. I used about 110 hours for the adaption. Problem 
is gdb and dwarf on x86-64 (display of var parameters) and freezing of the 
application if compiled with -gl in case of an exception. I can't understand 
that Lazarus lives with this since years.
I asked in the MSEide newsgroup about the interest in 64 bit, the result was 
near zero.
