eventually (not too far from now), we will have a 64bits Stack VM... but we 
will not (or not soon, at least)  have a Cog 64 bits... The JIT needs to be 
redone to work there...
 
so... we still need 32bits architectures to work on 64bits... and basically 
they work. I wonder why it does not work for you :(
