It's perfectly legal to run 32 bits on a 64 bits os, but in some case
my program load external dll or external program load some of my libs.
And mixed 32/64 bits dll is a source of errors. So I prefer warm user
that installed version is not the right. On same spirit, it's not good
to run X86 binaries on itatium because emulation has a big cost.

Since it's also not well-fitted to run Sparc binaries on an x86
system, it seems like 'uname' provides exactly what you want.
