[Pkg-ia32-libs-maintainers] Bug#534237: ia32-libs and ia32-libs-gtk are broken in unstable

I actually think this is due to a conflict in lib32ncursesw5, as well as 
a few other "lib32" libraries, including lib32z1 and lib32nss-mdns, but 
not many others, such as lib32asound2, lib32stdc++6, or lib32gcc1.  
ia32-libs and ia32-libs-gtk haven't been updated in a long time and work 
fine in testing, while the dependencies in unstable do not install even 
when requested directly (they simultaneously depend on libc6-i386 and 
request its removal).  This may be related to the eglibc6 transition?

Bug 534238 also certainly has the same root cause, and no 32-bit program 
that I have checked recently is currently installable on a 64-bit system 
when using Sid.
