It builds a local apt archive of 32bit packages converted to
amd64 so that one can install them with apt. One goal is to have
OpenOffice.org for amd64 but I started small with things I needed just
now.

I forgot to mention that after install you should add

deb file:///var/lib/amd64-archive sarge main contrib non-free

to /etc/apt/sources.list. I haven't automated that yet.

37.5 cent packages?  ;)
