What will happen to the existing lib64 xulrunner on my system? will it
be replaced by lib32? Also will the USE flag lib32 show up after I add
the multilib overlay? At the moment I get:

->  euse -i lib32
global use flags (searching: lib32)
************************************************************
no matching entries found

local use flags (searching: lib32)
************************************************************
no matching entries found

Will a lib32 show up when xulrunner is emerged from the multilib
overlay? As of now no such USE flag exists

->  equery uses xulrunner
