The incentive for combining 32- and 64-bit binaries is mighty slim; in most cases where 32-bit is satisfactory, the 32-bit code runs as well or better on the 64-bit OS, while the larger size binary detracts from any advantage. gcc has survived without providing much support for multiple paths, e.g. non-SSE, SSE3, ... where the incentive might have been greater.
