Besides you'll have to jump through these hoops if you want the flash plugin
as well.  Adobe seems to think there isn't any demand for a 64bit Linux
plugin.

Strange considering pretty much every computer you can get your hands on
these days will do 64bit.  Make sure to file a bug or send an email asking
for the 64bit version of their plugins so they know the demand is there.
