We've been told many times (including from the "horse's mouth") that
this will not work and will render your system inoperable!
Which in other words (and my findings) means do a reinstall, reconfigure
and all that.. *sigh*
reinstall yes, but not a reconfigure. The configuration files don't differ
between the 32 and 64 bit versions (things like ld.so.config excepted,
because it points to lib64 as well as lib, but the config files that give
direct paths to libraries are few and far between), so just be sure to back
them all up, and restore them after the reinstall, and you should be good to
go
