The new version addresses the problem in the following way:

• rhel3 (32bit) and rhel4-64 (64bit) xrootd versions are installed.
• if xrdcp and xrd.pl are executed the 32 bit version of the xrootd release are used.
• for xrdls the bitness is obtained from the system (which matches the one for ls)
• for xrdprel the bitness is guessed from the command that is run with the preload library. If the bitness can not
  be guessed (shell scripts for example) the systems default is used
• the options -32 or -64 are available to force using the 32bit or 64bit xrootd release respectively.

Besides addressing the bitness issue a new xrootd version will be used. The xrootd version is 20091008-2019. There are
are a few improvements for the xrootd client and xrdcp. In particular the annoying message about the xrootd client version is not printed anymore.
