The installation guide _does_ mention this though. It can be seen both in 
the architecture table
   http://www.debian.org/releases/stable/i386/ch02s01.html.en#id2756248
and in the section on CPU support just below that:
   http://www.debian.org/releases/stable/i386/ch02s01.html.en#id2756691

I've just added an explicit caution in the version for IA64.

Cheers,
