OK, now everything works except Maple and I believe I know why- the
default Maple launch command ("add maple; maple") only works on 32 bit
machines- the Java interface works on both 32 and 64, so if you change
the invocation to "add maple; maple.java" it should work for both 32 and
64 bit machines.
