[racket] Error during installation of 5.3.4.11

Ahem, picked the wrong 32/64bits version... Sorry for the noise.
Maybe there could be a simple check in the installation file that issues a
warning whenever the machine's architecture is different from the
installer's?
Though since very few people seem to complain about this, that's probably
no big deal.
