Just closing the loop on this - turned out the original plan worked out
(the big question mark was the dependency mixing of 32 vs 64 configs),
and pcp-libs and pcp-libs-devel multilib code was committed last night.
After much rpm2cpio diff verification and installation combo testing,
it'd appear we have now achieved multilib goodness.

BTW, I got this bit wrong in hindsight - we were discussing binutils
and not coreutils.  But oddly that is even smaller (on RHEL6):

    inst [65 or "binutils-2.20.51.0.2-5.34.el6.x86_64"] value 9814650

*shrug* ... somehow its doubled in size in more recent versions
(or both 32 & 64 bit variants installed).  Doesn't really matter,
just pointing out the error of my ways there.

cheers.
