Using the "file" command on .../program/soffice.bin (Linux) or 
.../program/soffice (Mac OS X) should mention either "32" or "64" 
somewhere in its output (which is not specified, so this is with a 
little luck---also note that at least Mac OS X could also have universal 
binaries where "file" would mention both "32" and "64").
