It's not... and for good reason. If you look under the covers
(VMADump process layout and message packing details), x86 and x86_64
are almost as different as x86 and ppc64. The register files are
different, memory space details are different, etc. A 32 bit process
dumped on x86_64 is not directly undumpable on x86 and vice versa.
