Are you running EPICS in pure 64-bit mode?
That is did you build EPICS as a 64-bit package or are you in 32-bit
mode?

If you are truly running pure 64-bit, you should run all of the
regression tests in EPICS BASE.  Also, you should check the EPICS
extensions.

I have been running pure 64-bit EPICS on RHEL WS4 AMD64 for about 8
months as well.  
All of the regression tests pass for me.

The main problem I have now is with some of the EPICS extensions at run
time.
   --- alh (seg faults at run time)
   --- StripTool (seg faults)
   --- EDM  (works)
   --- probe (works)
   --- Channel Archiver (works)

Thanks,
Ernest
