One way to make this smaller (without any overlap) would be to split the
current two (i386 and x86_64) repos into three: i386-common, i386,
x86_64.  For an i386 system, you use i386 and i386-common, for a
multilib x86_64 system you use x86_64 and i386-common, and for a pure
x86_64 system you use just x86_64.

I don't know if it is worth the trouble though.

I don't speak for anybody but myself - that's enough trouble.
