Thanks for doing that. Is there a free VM that allows 64-bit guest 
machines? My version of VirtualBox doesn''t; VMware does but is $$.

The gem file looks large - the previous one was only ~10% bigger than 
the equivalent x86 one. Perhaps you could check if doing ''strip -x 
lib/wxruby.so'' then ''rake gem'' again produces a
smaller one, and if so,
upload that in place.

Also I think the platform tag for x86_64 is AMD64; IA-64 is intel''s
64-bit.

I actually have a server I work on for this World of Warcraft emulator
project, that has a 64 Bit processor......

Done and done.

Also I think the platform tag for x86_64 is AMD64; IA-64 is intel''s
64-bit.

Actually, the 64 bit processor that I built this on, is a 2x Intel Xeon 2.0
GHz Quad Core system, with 4 gigs of ram, and CentOS installed on it.  I
custom compiled Ruby, and installed it.  So , it''s giving the tag back
for
libs and such installed as x86_64.  hence why I put it as Intel IA64.
