64 bit Erlang on Opterons?

[Peter-Henry Mander]

Hi Gurus,

I've a dual AMD Opteron machine at my disposal, and I wonder if Erlang
compiled from source will be able to take advantage of its 64 bit
capability. I suspect that HiPE is not (yet) capable of using it, but
will the virtual machine be 64 bit, and how do I verify it is actually
working with 64 bits?

Pete.
