The wonders of open source my friend :)
Try the client that best suits your needs and test it out. If you find
a problem; submitting a patch is great, but simply opening a bug would
do fine.
I've never had a problem going from 32bit to 64bit, but that's just
me. You should definitely do your own testing and validation to be
sure.
