It is possible to come up with a set of gcc flags that generate a "generic" binary for both systems. The problem is that the generic code would not be optimal for backend nodes. As a result it may effect on applications performance.
We had a similar setup issues on our platform as well. As a work around, we compiled two version of the code and merged them to single install directory.
