This makes it so that if CR_LIBARCH32 has been set then that will be used, otherwise CR_ARCH32 will be used. CR_LIBARCH32 is used to work around a problem where CR_ARCH32 was being set to i686 instead of i386 when in a chroot on amd64. The problem with the simple solution of just changing CR_ARCH32 is that it makes building the 32bit library on amd64 fail.
