No, it should just be blank...

DOWNLOAD_x86_64=""

...which means "x86_64 uses the same source as the regular DOWNLOAD".

UNSUPPORTED would mean the package can't be built on x86_64, which is
obviously not the case here.

Beware: Slackware's help2man isn't the same as Debian's. You might make it
work, but it might take some messing with.

If you have trouble, just grab the man page from the Debian package and
include it with your script. Install with something like:

mkdir -p $PKG/usr/man/man1
gzip -9c < $CWD/$PRGNAM.1 > $PKG/usr/man/man1/$PRGNAM.1.gz

Hope this helps...
