Hmmm, yes I checked out sqlite.org this morning, and there does seem to 
have been some effort in solidifying 64-bit support.  My experience 
came from the version of SQLite shipped with Qt 3.3.2, running on a 
Solaris 8 SPARC box.  My understanding is that SPARC may have some 
additional alignment issues that don't necessarily apply 
across-the-board to other 64-bit platforms.  Anyway, as long as amd64 
support is there, I don't imagine we have too many folks running Myth 
on a SPARC... :=)
