Well, including the 32bit binary in the x86_64 would cause the rpm to
require about 10-20 library rpms from the i586 repositories, that is why
I don't like it too much.

As Charles said, only on i586. We would have like:
ati-8.88.8-8plf.i586.rpm
ati-control-8.88.8-8plf.i586.rpm
ati-8.88.8-8plf.x86_64.rpm

The ati.i586 would always pull ati-control.i586 so that previous
behaviour of users having control panel installed by default is kept.

The ati.x86_64 would not pull ati-control.i586, so users need to install
it themselves if they want to use it.
