Not really. IA-64 wasn't added until after the 2.10 branch was forked. I
haven't actually looked into how intrusive the changes would be if we wanted
to add it, but at this stage in the release cycle I really don't want to do
that anyway.

Then those using IA-64 can work from a snapshot of the trunk.
