Hrm, your manifest should be able to handle this one on its own.

Assuming your foo.conf file is part of the foo::config class, add this
subclass:
foo::config::arch64bit {
  File["/etc/foo.conf"] { source => "..." }
}

Then, at the place in the manifest where you pick the 64bit version of
the foo application, add an "include foo::config::arch64bit".

Will this work for your manifest?

Cheers,
Felix
