Building library packages and making your own multilib repo is

you need to build for both and then munge them together for a multilib
repo.
Most of Fedora users and developers don't need doing that. And if so,
you can build your package in Koji (scratch build), or use mock i686
config (it will include i686 Koji repositories).
Historically, we really haven’t wanted people to pull from the Koji
repo, and we probably still don’t want to do that, since it’s not
mirrored and stressing it could cause more problems our already
overtaxed build system environment.
I think the number of such users will be very few.
We should get rid of all 32-bit packages (excluding needed by Steam or
Wine32) ASAP.
