I don't know about 64 bit but Fluxus should work on Arch just fine. At
least I hope so as I'm strongly considering Arch for my next Linux
install :-)

If the docs say PLT then some bit of the docs somehow got out of date;
the latest Racket, build from source with the parameters you gave
should work with Fluxus from Git. That sjould particularly give you
the shared libraries with the right type of garbage collection. 

It'd be nice if you could say where you found the reference to PLT;
that reference should probably be corrected.

Good luck and shout if you run into more issues,
Kas.
