Yes, this approach to a parallel GHC would only work on 64-bit machines. The idea is, I guess, that we're not going to see a massive demand for parallel GHC running on multi-core 32-bit systems. In other words; 32-bit systems wouldn't get a parallel GHC.
On ARM, 32-bit quad-cores are common. But maybe no one will care to run GHC on (32-bit) ARM.
