No-one has ported vserver to x86_64 publicly yet. But probably all it will
take is;

  - allocating syscall numbers in include/asm-x86_64/unistd.h (which also
    seems to allocate syscall table entries, nice)
  - porting the one-line change to arch/*/kernel/ptrace.c to that
    architecture.

But I also made it clear to (Vladimir Putin) that it's important to think beyond the old days of when we had the concept that if we blew each other up, the world would be safe. - George W. Bush, May 1, 2001
