The problem exists since I moved to SL and the ia32/intel64 appeared six months later when I reinstalled the new ifort compiler (the previous one had library incompatibilities with SL but was not giving this ia32,intel64 message). It is a small nuisance because it does not prevent ifort to run so I did not bother to try to fix it but it is linked to the ifort resource file.

If the above doesn't work, can you please try creating a new user account? That will let us know if the problem is in your account or on the system.
It's also possible that some 3rd party application you installed broke your /etc/profile or /etc/bashrc to cause this kind of problem.
