I vaguely remember it being something about having a -devel package?
Yes.
Extras development: All i386 -devel packages (also virtual ones) and their dependency chains are copied into the x86_64 repository unless the -devel package is black-listed. Additionally, white-listed packages and their dep-chains are copied.
For Extras <= 6 it's just the "wine" packages.
For Core I've heard about a white-list that is updated from time to time and about ongoing work in the multi-lib area.
