Here's the response I got from when I asked about that in January:

Not at this time. X86_64 support is my priority, as soon as I'll have time. 
When that works, I may consider it.

I would like a generic kernel with sysctl tunable instead. mprotect() would be 
a good choice for that.

> 3) Would you consider providing an amd64 image?

Yes, I hope to do that soon :)

> Also, are you planning on bumping the version any time soon?

Yes, again I really need to find some time and do that.
