I would go with 64 bit os non app v with provisioning server to start and migrate to app v when 64 bit app v client is avaliable. 


Other option is to use citrix's streamer. It works on 64 bit

Honestly I’ve had pretty lackluster results with virtualizing Citrix servers. Not too excited on that prospect presently.

32-bits VMs and App-V. Gives you both, in effect.

Windows 2008 R2 is 64-bit only. App-V is 32-bit only (presently). If you had to pick one which would it be – 64-bit arch or app virtua lization? (and why?)
64bit means more memory and more users per server, but possibly some compatibility issues 
App-V means less app conflicts and hence less silos, but 32 bit only.
I’m planning for a Citrix farm upgrade and curious about your though ts.
