I for one have compiled Emacs in 32bit-mode on an amd64 machine in two
difference circumstances:
- once on my home machine which is a Debian GNU/Linux x86 system (no amd64
lib or compiler installed) with an amd64 kernel (mostly to get access to
more than 3GB of ram, although a bigmem kernel would have done the trick
as well).
- once on my work machine, which is running a version of Fedora for amd64
and where some of the 32bit libs are indeed missing. There's still plenty
of libs to build Emacs. The main reason there was to test the 32bit
build, as well as to get a build which uses less memory.
