Yeah, that's not going to happen. the 32 bit will be 32 bit, while the
64 bit will be dual arch (below).

Very, very few Distros ship a pure 64 bit GNU/Linux, and Mageia isn't
going to be one of them, FYI.

AKA Mageia 1 64, for example.

I realize we haven't settled on the naming conventions yet, but since
there won't be a pure 64bit Mageia there's no point in exploring such
nomenclature - Mageia 1 will come in either 32 bit, or 64bit multi-lib
including the libs, gcc, etc. to support it.
