How does it fail? Note that you may need to remove /etc/rpm/platform
and run "setarch i386 rpmbuild --target=i386 ..." for cross-builds to
work on x86_64.

That's how it is done in the Fedora repositories. All i386 pkgs that
are made available for x86_64 for multilib compatibility are stored
also in the x86_64 repository.
