1 Due to issues with some of the software I am wanting to run, when it is
2 run under the AMD64 bit version of Gentoo (one of which is Blender,
3 which I hope will be properly stable soon), I am planning to run x86
4 Gentoo (With the i686 stage3) on an AMD64 processor.

6 My question is this, If I enabel 64 bit support in the kernel, is that
7 likely to cause any issues with running the 32bit compiled software?
