Description:
32-bit distribution packages have my-innodb-heavy-4G.cnf file - which fails to work on 32-bit Linux (as 2G memory allocation is problematic)

How to repeat:
check support-files/

Suggested fix:
either remove the file, or add warning that it won't work properly on 32-bit platforms

Can't repeat because it appears to work fine on Linux on x86 with 4 GB RAM. The file already contains a note that 4 GB RAM are required.
