That was quick! Builds fine here.

How did you find the install process for AMD64 Debian? (did you install
it? :))

I'm running DeliTracker with the enhanced 14bit-Noteplayer, rendering
Stardust Memories (by Jester of Sanity) mod to a 60kHz 16bit AIFF file
with DSP effects, transpose, and bass and treble enhancements :D

I'm going to have a day of listening to mods because of this, hehe :)

It feels about as fast as my A1200 with 68030/40 + 882/50 which I don't
have anymore :( (A64 3000+). I'll let you know if I run into any quirky
problems.
