are you saying this is a general glibc challenge, or something specific to OBS systems?
Well, on a CentOS system (or any Red Hat derived system), the problem is that all 32-bit support is added by adding the .i386 package. As the package itself is a 32-bit arch package, there isn't a glibc(x86-32) dependency; everything is already assumed to be x86-32.
SuSE's (better, IMO) practice of having a 64-bit arch package with 32-bit contents necessitates the glibc(x86-32) provides
I think that the SUSE (and Debian?) approach is clearly superior to the CentOS/RedHat approach, but I had a problem to solve and I tried to solve it. Since I can't solve it this way, I'm going to punt.
