Problem with linker, host x86_64 , target x86

Hello,

In my laptop there is suse 11.0 64 bits and I would like to develop a application to geode (32 bits).

After install binutils, libraries etc etc for 32 bits, I have tried to compile, but now I have a problem that I do not known how to fix it.
I have looked for in Google, but I do not find any information about it. Perhpas I do not make a good search.

gcc version 4.3.1 20080507 (prerelease) [gcc-4_3-branch revision 135036] (SUSE Linux)

Now I make a new question. Can I have in my laptop two gcc compilers, one for 64 bits and other for 32 bits??? Or is there a option to use gcc with both platform???

Best regards
