Sigh. After the partial upgrade, which included linux-image-2.6.21-6
(from -5), and rebooting, the problem is gone. For now, at least. (I
presume this was "partial" due to my interrupting whiptail several
times, which probably derailed some of the packages.)

After this, I did another upgrade, which included upgrading from glibc
2.5-11 to 2.6-2. Aptitude still works, but it was "fixed" before
this.

Oh, hmmm, I wonder: when you remove libc6-686, do you need to reboot to
force a reload of libc6 without the -686 extensions, if they are in-use?

    world.       -- seen on the net
