[ale] I386 vs 64bit

If you install the 32bit libs then you will be able to run 32 bit
binaries.  At least that is how I understand it works.  Load only 64bit
libs and you have to have 64 bit binaries.

Note that this is probably easy with Debian.  Just apt-get the 32bit
libs.  Is there a 32bit compat lib package?
