I think I've found a solution... wrapping the 32-bit CommonFilesFolder
inside ProgramFilesFolder seems to work.
The 64-bit components are then installed in APPLICATIONFOLDER or
wherever the user consuming the merge module decides, while the 32-bit
components are forced into the 32-bit CommonFilesFolder.
<Directory Id="TARGETDIR" Name="SourceDir">
<Directory Id="ProgramFiles64Folder">
<Directory Id="APPLICATIONFOLDER" Name="WixProject1">
<Merge Id="MyModule" Language="0" DiskId="1"
SourceFile="Module.msm" />
</Directory>
</Directory>
</Directory>
<Directory Id="TARGETDIR" Name="SourceDir">
<Directory Id="MergeRedirectFolder" Name=".">
<Component Id="cmp1"
Guid="D23E4C6A-E9DC-11DE-88E3-4B5155D89593" Win64="yes">
<File Source="1.txt"/>
</Component>
</Directory>
<Directory Id="ProgramFilesFolder">
<Directory Id="CommonFilesFolder">
<Component Id="cmp2" Guid="*" Win64="no">
<File Source="2.txt"/>
</Component>
</Directory>
</Directory>
</Directory>
