There is a fork of Cinelerra, namely Cinelerra-cvs, for which packages 
are available at
cvs.cinelerra.org/getting_cinelerra.html, specifically for Suse, 
Slackware, Fedora, oh,
and Debian/Ubuntu.

My experience with Gentoo is that Virtual Heroine's Cinelerra (the 
original, and on its website there are both source,
and 64-bit binaries) introduces too much instability, and is considered 
unworkable.  Cinelerra-cvs, while not
deemed sufficiently stable for general release, due its use of the 
Theora libray, is available as source code for
emerging.  This has been compiled and is currently running in a virtual 
machine hosted by an OS of ill repute,
but that's not relevant.  The next step is to install it on a physical 
drive and see if the current hardware will be
sufficient.  It really doesn't matter if it's a bit slow compared to a 
64-bit binary.  After all, thinking time is
much more important.
