re multilib, under what configuration does abi_x86_32 get set on its
own? With a blank ABI_X86 variable in make.conf? Every 32-bit package
I've ever pulled in has needed that flag set, and I've had to manually
set it until blockers are resolved. I've not set -abi_x86_32 globally
or anything like that.
