They are cross-tools, and are installed in /tools (and thus, they don't 
appear on the real CD). Also, gcc is just bare bones good enough only for 
the kernel. Maybe patching gcc in Chapter 6 like Debian does (so that gcc is 
32-bit by default, but produces 64-bit code with -m64) is a better solution 
- but I have not tried to build this.

BTW, I have no 64-bit PC.
