Do you really need that?

Build the 32 bit one, then completely separately build the 64 bit one, 
then use some tool (is it lipo?) to combine them (no idea if this really 
works, but it looks like the most likely bet). Note that the header file 
gmp.h may not be the same in both cases, so you'll have to add some 
#ifdefs to it if you want a single file.

Sorry, no can do.
