Actually, I think Armin did something like that (I do not recall the
details), but perhaps using a separate 32-bit build (maybe a real
cross-compile).  If that was in a separate location (/opt/bin32 as an
example), it might simplify things.  Search for e.g. a past thread
on 'Multiarch LFS' (looks as if Armin managed a separate /lib32, but
with several steps, i.e. probably similar to a real cross-compile in
CLFS).  If anybody is interested in this, probably best to look at
elkrejzi/system-management at github.com.  I'm sure the process has
probably changed, and he might not be doing what I have suggested.
