i386 is my primary development machine at $work and home; I have one
amd64 laptop and one i386, and a Mac mini G4 (powerpc32).  Most of my
hardware are 32-bit and I intend to keep it this way.  I don't feel
comfortable with 64-bit arches, and only use them reluctantly.

What's with all you people wanting to kill perfectly working stuff?
Fix bugs, don't axe features.
