what do you mean exactly? Pharo Launcher is implemented on top of Pharo
4, not Pharo 5. But you should not care about that (it could also be
implemented in Rebol and that shouldn't impact you). If you are about
launching Pharo 5 images, that's already possible will all launchers
built during the last months.

Pharo vm is 32 bits only for now. But this should also not be a problem.
Most of us run Pharo on a 64 bit system.

you can just download the latest launcher from the "How to install" section.

several persons believe the launcher is not ready to be the default
download for everyone. Unfortunately, nobody has time to work on it.
