But you will have complicated dependency problems. Or at least
users will install the wrong version, or do you intend to only release
the 64 bit version on 64 bit systems? and the 32 bit version on 32 bit
systems? I do not really see the point.
If you can not handle this really architecture independently then
you should really have it arch: any.
An other alternative is to provide both jars in the same package and
have a startup routine to select the correct version automatically.
