Everything in the 64 bit section is 64 bit, except the ia32 compability

system.

OK - I omit the 'base' system when I install the O.S. so I think I
should be fine.
The base system is 64 bit. 32 bit is available for some proprietary stuff that needs 32 bit libraries (not so many nowadays). But usually, a base install pulls no 32 bit libraries.
