You can specify the target architecture when you compile, provided you
are only targeting one machine type.  You can also specify 32 or 64 bit
object generation.

The biggest source of incompatibilities (on the came architecture) is 
data type size assumptions when moving form 32 to 64 bit.  These are
well documented.
