I just found this in Section 2.3.1 of the Data Guard Concepts and Administration Guide [1]:

"All members of a Data Guard configuration must run an Oracle image that is built for the same platform.

For example, this means a Data Guard configuration with a primary database on a 32-bit Linux on Intel system can have a standby database that is configured on a 32-bit Linux on Intel system. However, a primary database on a 64-bit HP-UX system can also be configured with a standby database on a 32-bit HP-UX system, as long as both servers are running 32-bit images."

Has anyone proven this wrong? Are my standby plans ruined?
