Should work fine - we have historically replicated between boxes
running AIX and Solaris, with radically different hardware involved,
so "little" differences like x86 versus x86_64 should be no big deal.

Actually, there was a period of time when we were running a build of
PostgreSQL and Slony-I compiled for Red Hat Advanced Server (or was it
RHEL?  don't recall...) (32 bit IA-32) on some Opteron boxs running
SuSE Linux in 64 bit mode.

It wasn't until I was needing to upgrade some (not-Slony-I-related) C
functions that it was discovered that entirely the wrong kind of
binaries had been installed.  No problems had been encountered...
