Centos' "upstream vendor" (the big guys with the hat) say in
their release notes that 32 on 64 is a "Technology Preview".  Works
fine unless you actually want to do any I/O of any sort.

It is claimed by many on this list that HVM 32bit on 64bit dom0
works on centos but I have never tried it myself.
