[gentoo-user] Emerging media-sound/supercollider fails with"multilib-strict check failed!"

I'm not sure where best to address this, so for now I am starting here.
I'd like to have this addressed, and be able to emerge it without
disabling "multilib-strict" as it seems that this has been enabled
because these packages are going to end up hard failing before too long.

Is there a good way to end up reporting these kinds of things?  I really
wish this (and other packages which might have this problem) fixed.  If
this isn't the right place to put this, could someone tell me where, and
if I need other information?

File a bug on bugzilla, but in this case, there exists one already:

https://bugs.gentoo.org/628362

But I see supercollider does not currently have a Gentoo maintainer, so
you might want to consider proxy-maintaining it or something.

It has a fix suggestion on the bug already, no idea if that's the best
approach though.
