As voiced nicely by Steve and Chris, this is not a good idea. We gain little besides yet another transition. We should instead be beginning to consolidate 1.5 toward a beta and later a release. Switching to 64-bit only makes that no easier, nor does it simplify anything given that we're already successfully building universal i386 / x86_64 builds. -Evan
