 The R-Pi 3 series are quad-core 64-bit processors. However, the
standard OS install (via NOOBS, and likely also the stand-alone Raspbian,
et al) are 32-bit to support all R-Pi models with a single installer.

 AS for the later queries about "static binaries" -- I would expect them
to be very rare, as they have to be built with all needed library functions
included, and that starts to add up fast on a limited memory system, in
contrast to run-time shared object libraries.
