I didn't say that it forced 32bit either, but winetricks does make 32bit
prefixes when WINEARCH=win64 is not defined and it has to create the prefix,
either because the prefix doesn't exist or --isolate is used. I believe
--isolate is the default for the winetricks steam recipe. So even if the user
has a 64-bit prefix, winetricks will make a new 32-bit prefix, unless
--no-isolate is given.
