You don't, and you should not care.  He has to reveal his program name, some
games it has played, and the hardware it is running on.  Everything else is
"his" to reveal or hide as he sees fit unless there is a protest.  Then source
has to be produced but 32 vs 64 bit is not something he ever has to reveal, not
that there would be any reason to not do so...
