It means the VM internally is 64bit, while it runs 32bit images.
You'd need a 64/64bits VM to run your image.

I'm pretty certain you can find one for download by searching the list.
If not, it (was at least) one of the targets in the XCode project you 
can find in iOS platform in trunk. (10.5 SDK iirc)
Not quite sure which version of VMMaker you'd need to use to generate 
sources though.
