As a Windows guy on a 32-bit machine (yes, yea, I know, I know, "that's 
old", "you should upgrade", etc), I always test 64-bit (on a 64-bit machine 
that I at least have access to) by using a 64-bit Debian 6 LiveDVD with USB 
persistence:

I use that to do 64-bit testing right before any release. Not nearly as nice 
as -m64, but it works well enough for me.

It sucks that you can't run a 64-bit OS in a VM without hardare 
virtualization (which many Intels don't have), even on a 64-bit machine with 
a 64-bit host OS (Hmm...or is that restriction only on 64-bit machines with 
32-bit host OSes...? I forgot...).
