Interesting.  What I have added to HEAD and 9.0 docs is the attached
patch that explains the proper service name should be used.  I don't
think I want to mention 64-bit explicitly, and in fact this section is
part of an 'e.g.' block, meaning they are just examples.  If I get more
64-bit reports I can add an example for that too.

Agreed.  Second patch attached that mentions this.
