Comment:

 This is simply not possible as most ported software winds up hard-coding
 some component of the path in files or libraries themselves. Some of the
 time, at least the PREFIX is not hard-coded, but then the path to lib,
 bin, etc. is.

 When we add 32-bit secondary architectures to x86_64, we will simply have
 to rebuild x86_gcc2 packages as being for the secondary architecture (if
 at that point we even need x86_gcc2, etc.) We already did this before for
 the x86/x86_gcc2 hybrids, so we can do it again for x86_64/x86_gcc2
 hybrids if necessary.
