I switched to 64-bit installation and for me there seems to be no
difference to 32-bit:

* fresh up to date 64 bit 12.04 beta2
* installation of FGLRX closed source driver from system settings
* installing packages: vainfo, xvba-va-driver, libva-egl1, libva-glx1

$ cd /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/dri/
$ sudo ln -s /usr/lib/va/drivers/fglrx_drv_video.so fglrx_drv_video.so

$ vainfo
libva: VA-API version 0.32.0
Xlib:  extension "XFree86-DRI" missing on display ":0".
libva: va_getDriverName() returns 0
libva: Trying to open /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/dri/fglrx_drv_video.so
libva: va_openDriver() returns 0
vainfo: VA-API version: 0.32 (libva 1.0.15)
vainfo: Driver version: Splitted-Desktop Systems XvBA backend for VA-API - 0.7.8
