[ut2004] Patch 3355 - AMD 64 Still Useless

On the download issue, the problem is that some servers have
unpublished mods and maps, and rarely do they have a page listing what
all is loaded up on them and where to get them.  Consequently, it is
sometimes difficult to find the same version that is on the server for
what is published.

As for other bugs, some bugs have been out there for ages.
Unfortunately, to my knowledge, there is not really what I would call
a good method for reporting them, and searching for what has already
been reported.  No bugzilla, gnats, or other bug tracker.  Oh well...
right now, my main problem is getting the latest ATI driver to give me
a working X11 display on FC3 with my 9500Pro!  In the meantime, I am
stuck connecting to Clint's DC server with XP... GACK!!!
