created this issue as i had a confusion what a 32bit system means, if i have a 64bit compliant cpu but i have a 32bit os, can i still install memprof.

I have a 32bit os (ubuntu 9.10) installed on a 64bit cpu (intel core2 duo)

uname -a
Linux o 2.6.31-22-generic #60-Ubuntu SMP Thu May 27 00:22:23 UTC 2010 i686 GNU/Linux

ok, saw this http://groups.google.com/group/ruby-talk-google/browse_thread/thread/43af510658ebc3c8/356fafa6290ec080?lnk=gst&q=memprof#356fafa6290ec080

it explicitly mentions

The gem ONLY SUPPORTS x86_64 LINUX builds of MRI 1.8.6/1.8.7 and REE
and saw the supporting section on the readme.

sorry about that
