Comment 1 Miroslav Lichvar 2011-07-11 07:29:01 UTC 
It seems there are only glibc and libstdc++ i686 static packages in the 64-bit repo, but I'm not sure that is a bug.
Comment 2 Bill Nottingham 2011-07-11 17:54:34 UTC 
It's intentional, the static whitelist is only those two packages.
Comment 3 prz 2012-07-22 10:07:14 UTC 
silly to close it as not-a-bug. Trying to ship something here that relied on it (well, you gotta compile grub i386 and guess what you need ?) and now I have to scratch it from some obscure sources.
