While I have not tested it, I am pretty sure that none of the binaries 
will work with IA-64.  However, if you want to download eclipse and the 
systemtapgui source, I can guide you through the process of building a 
binary for IA-64.

1. Download Eclipse 3.1.2 
(http://fullmoon.rtp.raleigh.ibm.com/downloads/drops/R-3.1.2-200601181600/index.php)
    While Eclipse 3.2 is out, there are a few bugs with its Toolbar that 
are still being addressed
2. Download SystemTapGUI source 
(http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/stapgui/systemtapgui-src_2006-07-21.tar.gz?download)
3. Extract the Eclipse archive.
4. Open Eclipse
5. Import the SystemTapGUI Source
    A. Click File->Import
    B. Select Existing Projects into Workspace and click Next
    C. Select Archive file and browse to the location you downloaded 
SystemTapGUI
    D. Click Finish
6. Create a *.product file for IA64
    A. Open up the com.ibm.ras.systemtap.systemtapgui plugin.
    B. Copy and paste one of the existing *.product files into the same 
directory giving it a name that reflects that it is for IA64
    C. Open the new *.product file and click the Configuration tab
    D. Click Remove All
    E. Click Add and select all of the plugins included in the binary.  
(everything starting with com.ibm.ras...)
    F. Click Add Required Plugins
7. Build the new binary
    A. Click on the Overview tab
    B. Under Exporting click Eclipse Product Export Wizard
    C. Specify a directory to contain the files
    D. Make sure Export Destination is set to directory and choose where 
on your system you want the application built
    E. Change both source compatibility and .class compatibility to 1.4
    F. Click finish
8. Open the directory you build SystemTapGUI in and run systemtapgui

Once you have the working IA64 product file, feel free to check it into 
subversion or email it to me so others can use it too.

There are build instructions contained in both releases, located in 
'Documentation\readme.htm'.  We are working on moving everything in the 
documentation folder onto the website for easier access. So you don't 
have to go look for it, I have included the instructions below.


     Installation

SystemTap GUI is packaged as a stand-alone Java application. You may 
download and build the source yourself or download a prebuilt version.
NOTE: Installation assumes you already have both Java and SystemTap 
installed.


      A. From Source

   1. Download Eclipse
   2. http://www.eclipse.org/downloads/ Download the source tarball
   3. http://stapgui.sourceforge.net/download.shtml Untar Eclipse
   4. tar -xzvf eclipse-SDK-3.1.2-linux-gtk.tar.gz Import the project
      into Eclipse
      Select File->Import
      Select 'Archive' Click 'Next'
      Browse to the directory you downloaded the SystemTapGUI tarball to
      Choose a location to import to
   5. Click finish Export the project
      Open up the com.ibm.ras.systemtap.systemtapgui plugin Open the
      systemtapGUI.product file Click on Eclipse Product Export Wizard
      under Overview/Exporting Choose Directory for export destination
   6. Make sure compiler options are set to Java 1.4 Click finish Run
      the project
      Locate the exported files and click the SystemTapGUI icon. 


      B. From Prebuild Tarball

   1. Download the binary tarball
   2. http://stapgui.sourceforge.net/download.shtml Untar the build
   3. tar -xzvf stapgui.tgz Run the application
      Open the systemtapGUI folder and double click the SystemTapGUI file

If build instructions are somewhere in the packages, could you point
them out?  If they aren't, please assemble some for us old-schoolers. :-)
