This will sound pedantic but the real problem is that BOINC _projects_ do not
support AMD64. In Debian there is now a package of the SETI@home application
for BOINC called boinc-app-seti. If you install this on AMD64 the BOINC core
client will use the application included in this package to crunch SETI@home
work units. So you are finally able to use the AMD64 version of the client.
