I checked in the installation script and found out that I was wrong: the 
new path is added to the end of PATH variable. If only one version is 
installed this is not a problem, but in this case probably it is: I 
would expect that the latest installed version is the first found.

Yes.

Installer detects current installs on the same plafforn (32 or 64bit), 
but it doesn't detect the installs on the other platform.
