The typical use-case here though is that you have an existing i386 binary,
which you can’t recompile, running with distribution-provided i386 libraries
(or a mixture of i386 libraries provided alongside the binary and
distribution-provided libraries), and it’s the behaviour of the libraries
that may have changed.

Stephen
