Actually no, it doesn't, it stopped doing that long ago. You get 32-bit
stuff only if:
* you install a 32-bit app which drags in the 32-bit libraries it needs, or
* you install the wine metapackage which will also drag in 32-bit WINE (and
its dependencies) as it's the one you're most likely to need, or
* you changed the setting in yum.conf to make yum pull both versions by
default.
