You should make an "iortcw" PKGBUILD and add it to the AUR. Like Quake 3, the "quake3" package is the "official" binaries from id Software, and "ioquake3" is the icculus.org version compiled from source. The same can be done for RTCW. I don't have the time to make a iortcw PKGBUILD currently, though.

I just tried to compile iortcw-sp on my x86_64 machine, it worked like a breeze! It required gcc-multilib and nasm. However, it does not provide as many file as the original wolf-linux-1.41b.x86.run (you would need to provide your own punkbuster). The advantage is that it does not require the old libstdc++.

There is a crash in presence of flaming zombies, specifically on x86_64 systems. Wolf just hangs and has to be killed from another console. The problem has beenn reported there: http://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=117684&highlight=flame+zombie+wolfenstein It seems that to solve this one would need to compile the iortcw sources from scratch.

For proprietary NVIDIA users on x86_64, there is another dependency: lib32-nvidia-utils. This replaces lib32-libgl (without it, you get this error: GLimp_Init() - could not load OpenGL subsystem)

Note to NVIDIA users: you'll need to use this command to truncate the GL_EXTENSIONS string that can lead to a segfault at start: __GL_ExtensionStringVersion=17700 wolfsp Also, sound works with the SDL wrapper available at wolfsp-sdl-sound.gz. There is an AUR package for this (http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=9777) however for some reason I cannot make it work, ?I have to use the launcher script from the original site: http://nullkey.ath.cx/~stuff/et-sdl-sound/

Oops! Fixed now. I don't remember if there was a reason why libstdc was 755... I changed it to 644.

The last question :) Why libstdc++-libc6.2-2.so.3 is set as 755? It works fine without execution permission (644).

Thank you. You forgot to add x86_64 in the arch line :)
