a libtool + multilib gentoo host + 64->32 cross-prefix problem: a request for eyeballs

I've stumbled onto an interesting little problem trying to build my
64->32 cross-prefix, which I bootstrapped with a no-multilib 32-bit
crossdev toolchain.

Please see https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=430722, especially
the final two posts.

I'd appreciate input on the correctness/feasibility of the various
solutions I propose there.

Apologies in advance for the verbose, stream-of-consciousness tone, it's
more of a brainstorm than a bug at this point, and in retrospect,
bugzilla probably wasn't the right place for it.

I think the problem is that upstream isn't multilib-aware.

I also think that it would be awesome if Gentoo could handle such
situations for us. The brute force method would be to do things in
every ebuild for multilib-challenged packages, but something smarter
would be nice..
