Thanks for the bug report.  This is a known issue.
I worked on it a year ago (even bought an AMD64 PC
for this work), but the patch I created hasn't been
reviewed or tested by others.

My patch is in bug 225859.  If you know how to apply
a patch, please give it a try.  I will attach a new
patch for the current NSPR source tree.
