I tested yesterday. I doesn't work "as this" as the configure script
bitches about not finding the appropriate headers (a file called
inittype.h from the top of my head).
I guess you need part of the compilation chain to be 32-bits
"aware" (but not like J. C. Van Damme, what a relief)!

I'll investigate in that area and propose a patch for the doc
accordingly so that our Dear Joe doesn't complain about this very issue.
