   yes and no... it depends on if the 32bit libs are available... the same goes   
   for 16bit programs on 32bit systems... many folk don't/didn't know there was a   
   16bit (sub)system on 32bit setups but without it, 16bit software simply would   
   not operate... one of the bugs that some folk might remember was in the   
   "thunking" code...
