Yes it does accept -m32. I think the best thing to do is call
tst_kernelbits(), as you suggested, at runtime anyway, as someone might be
running a 32bit compiler on a 64bit kernel and/or cross compiling.
Also it turns out that I am using some C syntax which is not accepted by GCC
4.3.4. This is annoying considering the tests compile fine with -std=C99 on
GCC 6.
Thank you,
Richard.
