AMD64 compile problem

[<keith.briggs@bt.com>]

I cannot get pari/gp to compile on my AMD64 linux system (Fedora core 4 x86_64, gcc-4.0.1).
There seems to be two major problems:

1. non-compatible types in gp_rl.c

2. linkage problem with kernel.c

Adding "-fPIC" to the gcc options seems to fix problem 2, but the resulting gp program crashes at startup.
no doubt due to problem 1.
Any hints?
