Well, this is a surprise for me! one of the oldest Linux Distributions (which is also my favorite): Slackware, is getting ready to have a X86_64 (aka amd64) version at their next release, currently the 64bit version is available only at the Slackware-current branch and not intended for production use of course.
This version will be multilib which means it will include 32 and 64 bits version of the libraries, contrary to the polemic Bluewhite64 Slackware port which only uses 64 bit libraries.
It will be very interesting what does this means for the unofficial Slackware ports around there and mostly for Slamd64 which was the first 64bit port of Slackware.
