[sldev] build 3109

[Billy Rose]

I tend to adhere to the KISS philosophy myself. I'm pulling my hair  
out just trying to get everything to compile 64 bit natively on Ubuntu  
so that I can run it on that OS's native ABI. I can't see why a simple  
button has led to such an argument when other factors have inherent  
difficulties that cause dramatically higher levels of frustration.
