I actually did that before seeing this message, and fetched
http://forms.helixcommunity.org/helix/builds/index.html?filename=20080619/player_all-realplay_gtk_current-20080619-linux-2.6-glibc23-amd64/RealPlayer-10.1.0.4421-20080619.amd64.rpm

It segfaulted. These are nightly builds and hence unstable. It's
unbelievable that there doesn't appear to be a standard 64-bit version
other than these.

Maybe tomorrow's version will work ...
