I've created an ebuild dev-perl/Locale-gettext for multilib, since there was not one present. It works for me. I used the ebuild from the main portage tree and just added "multilib multilib-native" to it.

Created attachment 239701 [details] Locale-gettext-1.05-r1.ebuild for multilib Ebuild I created.
Reassigning to maintainer-wanted@gentoo.org as I assigned in to perl@ in error. This I think would be best served as part of the multilib-overlay
I forgot to mentioned it was the multilib-overlay.
I think, this is obsolete by now as the multilib-native eclass is no longer maintained and the multilib-portage overlay has a package manager with full multilib support allowing to also build the Locale-gettext package from main tree for x86 on amd64.
