Soft Linden told me that he suggested 64-bit back in 2008, given the
state of 32-bit compatibility in 64-bit distros.  Also said Linux was
a tiny segment and most Linux users were running 32-bit.  (ubuntu
SL users having twice the number of other distro users...combined)

I suggested that one of the reasons for some SL Linux users running
32 was the fact that it's a pain in the ass to get SL releases running
on 64-bit.  And it's annoying to no end that I have to install 32 bit
flash just so I can have flash on web-on-a-prim work.
