Can RMP generate 32-bit compatible pkg on 64-bit Linux ?

Hi Folks,
   I am packaging using rpm on a 64-bit AMD with Linux (RHEL4 and SLES9) as the OS. Actually I was building the product fine on 32-bit and then upgraded my machine to 64-bit AMD with the x86_64 version of the OS.
Now the packages that are getting built by the 64-bit OS cannot be used on the 32-bit Linux.

Following is the error it gives on a 32-bit linux when I try to install it.

[root@nasrh4vm1 tmp]# rpm -iv client-1.4.0.3-1.x86_64.rpm
Preparing packages for installation...
        package client-1.4.0.3-1 is intended for a x86_64 architecture


Is there any way that I can build the rpm packages on 64-bit Linux and it will work on both 32-bit (i386) as well as 64-bit (x86_64) Linux.
There should be some way to get the backward compatibility. Help will be highly appreciated. I did lurk around , but did not get any documentation on it :-(

thx in advance,

Sandeep !
