I wasn't aware of that. Isn't that what Debian's multiarch is about?

I am crosscompiling projects from x86 build machine to arm64 and armhf.
I've got no issues with having libssl-dev, zlib1g-dev, libc6-dev,
libgcc-10-dev and a bunch of other development packages, coming from
apt, installed concurrently for my host and both arm versions. I've been
using this setup for a very long time without issues because it is
perfectly integrated with CMake and clang.

libpq-dev does not want to cooperate because it contains different 
/usr/bin/pg_config in each architecture package. If not for this single
file, the -dev package would be installable like all other ones.
