Hi!

The version of emacs on your 64-bit machine is an old cvs version,
i.e., older than february 6th 2005, when 21.4 was released (which was
merely a security fix) and the cvs version was renumbered to 22. The
version on your 32-bit machine is the stable release (without the
security fix).

I can reproduce this behaviour with emacs 21.4 on debian linux and a
pretty recent cvs version on osf/1 respectively. You should look
through the NEWS file of your cvs emacs, or, even better, have a look
in the source code to see what changed.
