Rob,

The original 64 bit build we were sent by you was 1.8.1.4. There was  
_never_ a 1.8.1.3 64 bit build until recently. When I asked at Beta1  
release time if we should use 1.8.1.3 I was told to use what we  
already had .. so it looks like we will need to either force users  
Beta1/CR1 64bit users to downgrade or stick with 1.8.1.4 for 64 bit  
and wait for ATF to upgrade to 1.8.1.4 for the rest of the binaries as  
well
