Comments:       If you need something compiled 64-bit, this is the way.
      Either run toolchain64-shell, or start it from the menu;
      this sets up some variables so that you can build easier.
-
      Example:
      ./configure --host=x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu
-
      Note that this is a cross-compiler, and so there might
      be some more difficulties compared to native compiling.

      This extension contains:
      - 2.6.32.7 kernel headers (GPL)
      - glibc 2.7 + patches (GPL)

Pictoral proof:


So, looking to the future, here's a 64-bit cross-toolchain. I have tested it on busybox, wget, and the linux kernel.

Note that we accept no 64-bit extensions for the time being; nor can you run such without suitable hardware and kernel. This is for testing, and will be used to compile the 64-bit kernel for 3.x.

PS: Might take a while to upload, these have some mighty sources.

curaga:
And it's up.

curaga:
Updated the -shell script in toolchain64.tcz.

gutmensch:
good work, curaga! I'm eager to run tc 3.x 64 bit on my 4 gb ram laptop ;)

Juanito:
based on testing with a different distro on a different architecture, the same app will run 10-15% slower...

That's not at all to knock it, you get access to ram > ~3.5GB as well.
