RE: 64-bit Linux On 32-bit processors

If you write your code correctly, it shouldn't matter much what you
develop on.  You can cross-compile...

You can get a used 64-bit sparc workstation for under $250 from ebay.
That can be used to verify your code doesn't break on 64-bit.  Just
don't expect it to be fast...
