What is the point of 32 bit hosts anyway? Isn't this only available
on x86_64 type CPUs in the first place?
No, 32-bit hosts are fully supported (except a 32-bit host can't run a 32-bit guest).

Again, what's the point?  All cpus shipped by Intel and AMD that have
hardware virtualization extensions also support the 64bit mode.  Given
that I don't see any point for supporting a 32bit host.

I believe that the Intel Core Duo's only support 32bit mode and are VT enabled.
