I haven't had any success with translated code using the switches 
taken from the page Jeremy referenced in a previous post.

If the source code in the euphoria Linux package is "broken" for AMD64,
then the documentation should reflect that-- especially the blurbs on
the download page.  Likewise, Euphoria to C translation for AMD64 is broken
and this should be noted in the documentation and relevant web pages. 

Is the only fix for this going to be a true port of Euphoria to AMD64?
