--- Comment #10 from Kalle Niemitalo <Kalle.Niemitalo at procomp.fi> ---
Thinking about dual-architecture operation some more -- cli_cppuhelper
delay-loads cppu3.dll and cppuhelper3MSC.dll, which are surely
architecture-specific.  It wouldn't make sense to install an x86 binary of
cli_cppuhelper from an amd64 build of LibreOffice, without also installing x86
binaries of those DLLs and whatever they depend on.  In the end, it might be
simplest to just allow side-by-side installations of x86 and amd64 builds of
LibreOffice, if users need to run CLI processes with both architectures in the
same computer.  That, or start publishing NuGet packages that carry the
necessary CLI and native DLLs of LibreOffice so that they can be installed as
part of each CLI application (incurring some license obligations).  It doesn't
seem to be in scope for this bug, though.
