So even better, is there a convenient GUI-based way for a user to check this? I don't see anything in "About this Mac".

Actually - yes. "About this Mac" *will* tell you. If it says "G5" or "Core 2", and 10.5.*, it's a 64-bit capable Mac. If it's running any earlier OS release, a G3 or G4, or first-generation Core, it's 32-bit only.
