If the host is 64bit (amd or intel) it can work with a 32bit (and 64bit) chroot. You only need to fix* the -march= in the chroot(ed) make.conf (CFLAGS=) and call chroot via linux32 or linux64 accordingly. ls -l /usr/bin/linux* lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 7 Aug 9 09:58 /usr/bin/linux32 -> setarch lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 7 Aug 9 09:58 /usr/bin/linux64 -> setarch *(do not set march to native)
