     159    <para os="p">This multilib wrapper makes it possible to build perl
     160    extensions other then 64bit. The PERL_ARCH enviornment variable controls
     161    which perl binary to execute. Some packages that may attempt to build
     162    against perl will run <command>perl -V:cc</command> to get the command
     163    that was used to build perl. If you're building a 32bit extension but you
     164    only have a 64bit perl this is not desired. By setting PYTHON_ARCH=32 you
     165    will beable to build the 32bit extension because
     166    <command>perl -V:cc</command> will return the command used to build the
     167    32bit perl installation.
