native 32 bit binaries on amd64

[edwardsa <edwardsa@afrl.kirtland.af.mil>]

While I understand that to keep a  purely 64-bit environment some 
recommend that AMD64 users set up a chrooted environment, I would like 
to know:

1. The practical disadvantages of installing the ia-32 libraries to run, 
for example, open office

2. After I have installed the ia-32 libraries, how to install the 32-bit 
binaries for open office.

Thanks,

Art Edwards
