I'm not following why that would be considered a valid option, as that clearly breaks existing users that update from a 32-bit kernel to a 64-bit one.Do you mean users who move 32-bit binaries (without recompiling) to a new x64 kernel? Does the kernel guarantees that to work?
Yes. No further (printable) comments for now...
