Hmm, that's certainly going to hinder operation on 64-bit distros that
most people ship...  Even if the supplicant and DM are 32-bit, shouldn't
the IPC layer handle that transparently?  I mean if the NS itself is
64-bit, it shouldn't matter if the binary-only supplicant and DM are
32-bit because the IPC layer should insulate each from the other...

Obviously the 64-bit distros can use the 32-bit versions of the NS, but
again that's not preferred.
