I wouldn't think the package architecture would be terribly important. A
32-bit package can be installed on either. I believe the key would be
marking the individual components as either 32-bit or 64-bit by setting the
msidbComponentAttributes64bit attribute. You could even go so far as
separating them in two separate features and adding component conditions to
ensure that 32-bit only components do not get installed on a 64-bit system.
The only question is would the Windows Installer service complain about a
package marked Intel in the Template Summary that contains 64-bit
components.
