Comment (by igloo):

 I'm not entirely sure we're doing anything wrong here. If you were to
 compile under linux32 then I expect it would work, e.g. on an amd64
 machine in a 32bit chroot:
 {{{
 $ uname -m
 x86_64
 $ linux32 bash
 $ uname -m
 i686
 $
 }}}
 I'm not an expert on this, so I don't know if we are meant to somehow
 detect what is going on when linux32 is not used.
