I tried installing the current 64-bit version on my 32-bit Windows XP virtual
machine, and the installer told me that won't work and suggested that I try
installing the 32-bit version instead.

How was the installation done?  I tried installing the 32-bit version on the
same virtual machine, and it worked fine.

Try uninstalling and re-downloading and re-installing.

It's STATUS_INVALID_IMAGE_FORMAT, which is described by

    http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc704588.aspx

as

    {Bad Image} %hs is either not designed to run on Windows or it contains an
error. Try installing the program again using the original installation media
or contact your system administrator or the software vendor for support.

(where "%hs" presumably gets replaced by the program's name).  Googling for
STATUS_INVALID_IMAGE_FORMAT does seem to indicate that mixing 32-bit and 64-bit
code could cause that problem.
