That's because gcc.x86_64 accepts -m32 but cannot produce 32-bit

The alternative would be for gcc.x86_64 to unconditionally install the
32-bit packages, even though most users will not use -m32 and so won't
need them. Another alternative would be to build gcc with
--disable-multilib so you can't use -m32, which would be annoying and
inconvenient for users.

That sounds like a great reason for a Suggests or Recommends dependency.
