As far as I recall 32 bit QD is included as part of SSW 7.0 on all machines.
The init is no longer required, junk it. I'm not even sure if it's an option
in the custom install any more - it's part of the system.

Of course if your s/w requires 32bit QD and it works, then I'd say you have
it working ... wouldn't you ? ;->

To be really sure, get a copy of MacEnvy, whatever the latest version is.
I'm sure it will be on info-mac.
