Description Pierre Ossman cendio 2014-11-14 16:01:46 CET 
Currently only the x86_64 target has a 64-bit environment in the form of gcc, binutils, etc. We should switch over to have this as the norm and only let the i386 target remain 32-bit.

The point of this is to speed up the builds as the 64-bit binaries are faster.

We did part of this in bug 5308 when we removed support for 32-bit servers. The arch-independent server modules now mainly use x86_64 rather than i386 for their tooling.
