Read the papers listed in the wiki. The short answer is no, same as it is
today with single-arch. As explained in the papers, trying to do anything else
results in a complex dependency nightmare.
That's a shame, as I think a lot of the infrastructure required for
multiple architectures overlaps with that required for multiple
versions.
