from your description IMO the core file is primarily generated wrong by gcore.
If you somewhere get a correct 32bit core file expecting gdb-x86_64 probably
reads it fine on your system.

At least in
http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/dgollub/openSUSE_Factory/src/gdb-6.8-14.80.src.rpm
I see no gcore biarch patch and FSF GDB does not support biarch gcore (in this
case i386-on-x86_64). You may port there the patch:
http://cvs.fedora.redhat.com/viewvc/rpms/gdb/devel/gdb-6.5-gcore-i386-on-amd64.patch?revision=1.6
