libc/glibc: correctly handle dual-bitness archs

If the selected ARCH is dual-bitness (eg. supports 32- and 64-bit),
then we need to know the correct place where to fetch some headers.
Currently, this applies only to x86 variants: i386 and x86_64.

      though, because the APCI stuff relies on the target C library headers
