After poking around the source code, I found a solution:
env MOZ_NO_REMOTE=1 do_dchroot_run firefox -P secondary
where do_dchroot_run is similar to do_dchroot in the faq, but runs its
argument:
#!/bin/sh
com=$1
shift
exec /usr/bin/dchroot -c ia32 -d "$(basename $com) $@"
Of course, you need to create the secondary profile first-- if you're
running the same profile as the 64bit firefox, it pops up a complaint
window... if anyone knows a way to deal with that, I'm still
interested, but at least I'm now at the "this is a pain" level rather
than "this is driving me nuts."
I think I'll file a wishlist bug for the debian package to add a
-noremote flag to the firefox-runner (installed as /usr/bin/firefox)
script that sets MOZ_NO_REMOTE.
