It's not to be considered a bug, AFAIK. We don't stipulate that
development packages be installable side-by-side in this way, we only
stipulate that for library packages where there's a need for it. There's
no particular use case where you absolutely need both -devel packages
installed at once.

Actually this is a bug. If the packages are offered in the same repo,
they should install together (barring explicit conflicts listed in the
spec file). Looks like the example makefile may be generated at build
time, or touched in someway so that it is different when on i686 and
x86_64. That should not happen, they should be the same.
