Let me echo David and thank you for the explanation, Scott.

However, I'm still having a problem that appears to come from this
32-bit subsystem. Specifically, if I go to install Wine, apt wants to
remove gettext. Wine recommends, but does not require, gettext:1386, and
apt indicates that this will NOT be automatically installed to replace
the removed gettext package (i.e. gettext:amd64, unless I've missed
something).

The behaviour I would have expected is that either gettext:amd64 is not
removed at all, or gettext:i386 is automatically installed to replace
it.

Is this correct behaviour? Should I just accept it and install
gettext:i386 myself? Or is it a bug?

Detailed output from apt-get attached...
