So, it seems to be an issue with the build script. Will talk to Vlad.

Since we've 32bit libs with ofed-1.2, it is a benefit to have also at least
ibutils as 32bit so that we can test if the corresponding 32bit libs work
properly, especially the context switch path.
Thus, please include also 32bit binaries.
Thanks
