Use the __LP64__ preprocessor definition to differentiate between the two. If you absolutely need to differentiate in code, you could always measure the sizeof(void *) or something.

Also, on a 64-bit capable system, will the x86-64 version always be
choosen when launching?


Yes, unless you manually overrode the architecture preference, as Xcode 3.0 and 3.1 do (they're 64-bit but run 32-bit by default).
