The bigger question you face is where these binaries expect your libgcc
and perhaps dynamic loader to reside. Its straight forward enough to
configure the system to build two versions with different tunes but one
would need to live in /lib and the other in /lib32 or some other /libXX
location. The way the multilib setup works, it doesn't really care
which configuration you use for a given location.

Cheers,
