      need confirmation for 32-bit JVM supportability on 64-bit Linux platform.

      This is document RFE for Java documentation.
      Our customer concerns that there's no link to 32-bit JVM
      from "Linux AMD64/EM64T 64-bit mode" in the URL below.

      http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/system-configurations.html

      However the documents below clearly describe that "Solaris on
      x64" supports 32-bit as well.
      http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/system-configurations.html
      http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/ja/system-configurations.html

      We got the information from java alias that this combination
      on Linux is also supported and any 32-bit program, including
      the JVM, should run under 64-bit versions of Linux.


      This inconsistency makes customer confuse therefore we'd like
      to let the following documents have 32bit support information
      on Linux 64 bit that keeps consistent ones across the platforms.
