May I ask you for the motivation to open this bug?

There are only 2 ways of dealing with this: - fix multiarch blockers (binutils) and finish the implementation (not for lenny anymore, sorry) - implement biarch like RedHat and SuSE did, putting all 64bit libs to /lib64 and 32bit libs to /lib, and patching dpkg et all to cope with this, allowing amd64 to install both amd64 and i386 packages (no way, sorry - 4 years too late for this) But opening RC bugs pointing to the obvious mess doesn't help neither our users nor my blood pressure.
