This is reasonable.  We had to go through the same type of thing when we
went to a 2.6 kernel.

IMO, a note on the webpage http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/read.html
and in the svn version of the book in the section "Host System
Requirements" really should be sufficient.  The notes should also say
that x86_64 capability is planned for LFS 7.0.

The point of users not reading the intro pages should not be a problem.
 When they ask for support, just point them to the appropriate page.

I just updated http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/download.html.  See
if that page's note seems appropriate and I'll update read.html the same
way.
