Listing the problems is easy by doing a diff between 32bit and 64bit include
files. Fixing those items up and also then changing the packaging to also
include devel items for 32 and 64bit is a huge chunk of work.

Currently buildsystems are separate between 32bit and 64bit targets and it
is then a runtime item to allow multilib setups to work. That a application
usage item only, not a development item.
