Yes, that is one of the two documented ways in the Apple man page to 
force 32-bit mode; the other way is to set a plist using the "defaults" 
command.  Keep in mind that these are Apple modifications to Python so 
they won't work with other OS X Python distributions like those from 
python.org.  The "arch" command should work with all of them, as long as 
you use "python2.7";  it won't work with the Apple wrapper program 
/usr/bin/python.  And I believe the Apple modifications only work when 
you use /usr/bin/python.
