To compile 64 bit?

Hello SuSE people.

Question: Am running an AMD 64 processor. There are still not all
programs that are 64 bit. I know that the system will handle 32 bit
stuff but I was wondering if an src file can be compiled to 64 bit.

Ex: Tonight I went to download smart at Guru's site. There were no 64
bit versions, only i686 and src's. I hesitated to download either
because I didn't know if either of them would work without problems.
