There's only one set of packages built, and both 32-bit 64-bit binaries are installed at the same time, and you can choose at system boot which kernel to load, so even when 64-bit binaries are available, just running file on the binary in /bin won't help, because that will be the 32-bit

If you want to support running 64-bit versions automatically on 64- bit systems, and 32-bit on 32-bit, then yes, you can do the same. man isaexec has some more details. (It can also, for instance, run an SSE/MMX 32-bit version on newer processors, and a plain i386 version on older

Also, as far as I know, 32-bit gcc can produce 64-bit binaries. exactly ... but Studio 12 does it better. :-) Indeed! It's really better in miscompiling MICO's cpp[1] and when something works (remaining of the ORB), it's slower than while compiled by GNU. Miscompilation is on 64bit only,

uname doesnt report 32 bits because the output of uname is irrelevant for this this is not linux, there are no separate 64 and 32 bit versions, there is just one version, and the stuff that does not offer significant benefits compiled in 64 bit mode is left as a 32 bit application On Sat, Sep 19,
