Did you find anything out when talking to the amd64 folks?  I am CCing this
to Peter who is very knowledgeable about amd64 as well -- Peter, the amd64
package should be built with exactly the same parameters as the other ten or
eleven arches, in particular as the 64 bit hppa and ia64.  

Any idea what may go astray here?  Is there a relation to the r-bugs post of
png() failing under amd64 ?
