I could not compile the standard c library with the 32 bit toolchain on
a 64 bit host, when the same library would build fine on the 32 bit
host. I have ran into this issue many times during the second stage of
the toolchain build on a 64 bit host. Same gcc/glibc sources would
compile on a 32 bit host but would fail on a 64 bit.

What sort of differences did you find?

You don't need to do that to run an existing 32-bit-host toolchain,
but you might need to do that to build a 32-bit-host toolchain on a
64-bit.
