I do not consider it nit-picking, for reasons you see below.

It is very much a Sage goal. There is every reason to believe a Solaris 10
port will be 64-bit. The only reason the port was first 32-bit is that gcc
tends to be less reliable on 64-bit SPARC.
It could even beat the Open Solaris port, though my interest is more in
Open Solaris now.
