The linux packages come with cross compile support for X86_32 by default.
This feature is rarely needed but creates a package dependency on a complete
gcc multiarch toolchain.
It makes these packages annoying to use for continuous integration systems like
travis-ci where you have to install dmd before every test run.

I think we should offer the 64/32 cross compiler dmd as separate package on
dlang.org/downloads.
