I didnt get what do you mean.

Do you mean :

I should install lib32 on freeBSD and then rebuild my applications in order
to make it work on 32 and 64 bit systems .

rite now I have built my app on 32 bit system (which is not having lib32
installed), it works on 32 bit freebsd but fails on 64 bit system.
