What I did was in the x86_64 image on the server

move /bin to /bin64, 
move /sbin to /sbin64
and (what I remember, but not very sure anymore): move /usr/bin/perl to 
/usr/bin/perl64

copy from a running x86_32 machine the /bin and /sbin and /usr/bin/perl to 
the image's root.

Pretty ugly, quick and dirty, but it (chroot and the rest) worked and 
after the install I only had put the 64bits binaries back and reboot.
