One more point: If you are building for 64-bit Intel or AMD chips, build
64-bit binaries.  If you are building for other 64-bit architectures
(e.g., PPC), build 32-bit binaries if you don't need the extended memory
access.  64-bit code tends to slow down due to memory transfer issues,
but Intel and AMD offset that slowdown with extra registers.
