43 Ok so we will probably have the following multilib options
44
45 * x86(ABI=x86_32{/lib}) + amd64(ABI=x86_64{lib64/}) +
46 x32(ABI=x32{/libx32})
47 * x86/amd64 ( what we already have in amd64 multilib )
48 * x86/x32
49
50 and
51
52 * x86 (no multilib for 32-bit processors ) ( what we already have in
53 x86 profile )
54
55 Sounds doable
