Out of the box, 64b only.

I've heard of some folk running it on 32b systems by replacing the single 
xen.gz binary with one built for 32b, but that certainly won't be a widely 
tested configuration.

I wouldn't rank it as a priority, but it would be nice to have the XCP build 
system spit out a xen-32b.gz and add some documentation about updating the grub 
config to boot it instead of the default 64b.
