This should be implemented in libretools, not makepkg. Right now libre* supports [-d chrootdir] and [-n chrootname] to allow for easily switching between multiple chroots $ sudo libremakepkg -n i686 If anything, I think that the only change that should be made is to libremkchroot, to allow it to easily load preset configuration for another arch. Arch's devtools package supports this.
