We do not support cross-building, so you'd have to use a 32-bit builder
for building 32-bit binaries (which does not exist for EPEL).  You can
test this in an gating/integration test, which can install the i686
packages.

You don't see this in Fedora because it we have the glibc32 package
there, but it's a hideous hack that needs to go away.  It only exists to
support building glibc itself.

Thanks,
Florian
