[sldev] Question about Snowglobe binaries

Here's what worked on my Jaunty 64-bit system:
* Make sure lib32z1 is installed
* cd /usr/lib32/
* sudo ln -s /usr/lib32/libz.so.1 libz.so.1

After that, Snowglobe-y goodness.

Someone willing to submit a patch to Snowglobe to make sure we link to
the right library without resorting to a symlink?

See here for more about supporting Linux 64-bit:
