Thanks for the input. In the meanwhile I tried to work past this by setting it 
up as a cross build using a toolchain files. However, i hit a road block when i 
discovered that not all libraries are multiarch friendly. In my case, 
qtmobility packages install to /usr/lib directly. I'm not ready yet to take 
the road of building/packaging qtmobility as well.

So i guess, i will now have to setup a VM for 32 bit builds. But thanks for 
the tip! :)
