How is it, after all these years, 64 vs. 32 bit is still biting us in the butt? (Or should it be butting us in the bit?) Just a rhetorical query.

With your encouragement that Open JDK works, I looked into this further and found the source of the issue:  I had installed the 64-bit version of the JDK, but of course LiveCode is still 32-bit.  Once I installed the 32-bit JDK 6.0 and pointed LiveCode to that it built without issue.
