I have to admit I did not spot the x86 verses x86_64 difference. They
are different however I think a b-a image makes most sense as a 64 bit
one and it makes more sense to test that of the two. I'm not sure there
is much marginal utility in testing the other?

I can update the commit message to state its a conscious decision?

Cheers,

Richard
