Why? Ever tried to install the 32 bit and 64 bit native linux tar
installer on one system?

This has nothing to do with Windows or Linux. Installing two native tool
chains on one system is simply a problem. Which fpc will a plain
fpc
call execute? Will the utilities be 32 bit or 64 bit (fpcmake and
friends, fp text mode ide). If always the native one is choosen, how to
call the other one? etc.
