Would it be possible to have package foo's x86_64 build produce a
foo.i686.rpm, or even just a foo-32.x86_64.rpm for this?  Wine is an
important use case, but keeping the whole arch machinery around for it
seems like overkill - just having the packages that are relevant for it
build 32-bit variants as a special case seems a lot cleaner.

Be well,
