x86_64 was the old name for amd64.  So, yeah, that's what you've got.

When I emailed, I had only tested with two of my very trivial classes,
and after trying one of my other very trivial classes I got a segfault. 
I've tried looking for other warnings along the lines of the
kaffe-methodcalls-external.diff one, but didn't find anything
spectacular.  I've got a couple non-critical warning cleanups so far. 
Actually, I was concerned about jni.c's DefineClass args not matching
the definition from include/jni.h, but I didn't track down if it
mattered or not.

Right now I'm running a make check.  When that finishes, I'll back out
my backout of dalibor's change that he brought up on IRC as being
questionable, and see how that changes regression output (I expect
unfavorably).
