[yocto] Forcing native binaries to build as 32-bit on a 64-bit host OS?

[Jerrod Peach]

All,

My company has traditionally built all their code on 32-bit systems for
32-bit target architectures.  We're now trying to move our build hosts to
64-bit OSes, but that's presenting us with a bit of a problem: some
non-trivial number of native packages don't want to properly build 64-bit
binaries.    Rather than fix all those issues right now, we'd like to build
everything as a 32-bit binary on a 64-bit OS.  The problem is, I'm not sure
how I'd go about forcing that to happen.  Is there some simple mechanism I
can use to force all native packages to build as 32-bit on a 64-bit system?

Kind regards,

Jerrod
