Andrew, thanks for looking into this.
So the upshot is that to fix the problem the 32 cppunit needs to be
installed elsewhere and you can't just rely on the supplied RPM packages
in their default location.
The issue with that is that the cppunit rpm is not relocatable.

I'd say drop it for now. Going forward I'd like to drop CppUnit for
boost test although I need to verify we can build boost tests as shlibs
as the valgrind+process startup overhead on individual small test exes
is quite painful.
I am putting this on hold for now, as the only viable way to do a
cross-arch build is to skip all the cppunit tests... and making an
untested rpm available for download doesn't seem correct. The (longer
term) alternative is to do the 32 bit build in a 32 bit environment so
that all tests can be ran natively.
