I have hacks like this in e2fsprogs.spec for example:


%ifarch %{multilib_arches}
mv -f %{buildroot}%{_includedir}/ext2fs/ext2_types.h \
      %{buildroot}%{_includedir}/ext2fs/ext2_types-%{_arch}.h
install -p -m 644 %{SOURCE1} %{buildroot}%{_includedir}/ext2fs/ext2_types.h
%endif

Unless I'm doing a Bad Thing here, maybe some macros to facilitate this
type of header mangling for multiarch?
