Due to issues with some of the software I am wanting to run, when it is
run under the AMD64 bit version of Gentoo (one of which is Blender,
which I hope will be properly stable soon), I am planning to run x86
Gentoo (With the i686 stage3) on an AMD64 processor.
My question is this, If I enabel

You mean run a 64-bit kernel with 32-bit support. There's no such thing as a
32-bit kernel with 64-bit support (at least not in x86-land).
