We certainly need to include 32-bit gdb, so that people with 32-bit PPC CPUs can debug things. But I agree it is better on ppc64 kernel to install just 64-bit gdb, 64-bit frysk, 64-bit strace and whatever else falls into this category of packages that handle both 32-bit and 64-bit processes in 64-bit incarnation, but 32-bit incarnation handles solely 32-bit ones. Some tools tightly coupled with the kernel for which sufficient ioctl 32-bit wrappers don't exist would fall here as well.
