Why's that? I'd very much welcome reports on the x86_64
packages. While I do have hardware to build them on, this is
rackmounted w/o any A/V hardware (I think not even sound), so testing
it is quite difficult for me :(

And if you find shortcomings in the packages your patches will be
gladly accepted & applied :)

Yes, mythmusic makes some assumptions on sizes which are not valid on
64bits.

All, but mythmusic at least compile and are available as rpms, whether
they work is another issue.
