Installing SPSS 20 on 64 bit RHEL6

Alan Howard
We would be interested in hearing from anyone who has successfully installed
SPSS Statistics 20 on a system running 64-bit RHEL6. While IBM does not
officially support SPSS on 64-bit Linux, the installation documentation says it
is possible after installing ia32-libs.  RHEL does not have an ia32-libs
package, which is common in other Linux distributions and we have found nothing
on the net that indicates exactly what 32-bit libraries are required for
installation to succeed .  IBM Tech Support was not very helpful since this is
not officially supported.

Thanks in advance...

RHEL is, according to their site, a mash-up of 64 and 32 ( so I guess 48?  )
Have you tried running this in the terminal:
yum install xulrunner.i686
(Installs a bunch of 32-bit libs)
