Please tone down "nonsense" for things other people are interested in.

I think the X32 abi idea is great, but I haven't heard much about it
since, like, 2012. I'm afraid it'd end up being an obscure thing that
even fewer people are interested in debugging and working on than i686.

The official site is https://sites.google.com/site/x32abi/, and the
most recent news is GCC 4.8 and Ubuntu 13.04.
