You emerge on of these:

emul-linux-ppc-glibc
emul-linux-x86-baselibs
emul-linux-x86-compat
emul-linux-x86-gtklibs
emul-linux-x86-java
emul-linux-x86-medialibs
emul-linux-x86-qtlibs
emul-linux-x86-sdl
emul-linux-x86-soundlibs
emul-linux-x86-xlibs

they are prebuilt packages, you get the libs that is most commonly used in x86
binaries which you can't get as x86_64 binary, as example Opera, flash and so on.

If you install crossdev, build an x86 gcc environment, modify ebuild to
install in the /emul/linux/x86 three, you should be able to install to install
two versions of the same library, just see to that the ebuilds has different
names as you don't want slotting here.


If you feel that the 32bit programs are all to important for you, then use a
32bit kernel with 32bit programs/libs only.
