Just to make sure that we can still (in principle) support that version,
though it has not been built for a while (we lost the buildbot for it and I
haven't had time to try on one of mine recently).

Nice catch, and I'm surprised we didn't see that before. Still, I think
it's not so bad, though, because the app is a pretty lightweight thing that
isn't really going to benefit from the bit. I assume that the actual Sage
binary created (not the app part) is still 64-bit.
