My long term strategy is to get everyone using the version on
sourceforge that splits out the common portions of the stub from the
arch-specific portions.  If you could go ahead and get ia64 working on
this as well I'd appreciate it.

Right now it's still vs 2.6.5, but I'm going to try and fix that today
or tomorrow to be vs 2.6.6.
