When there are people interested in going a hard way of fixing todays situation in debian/ubuntu and other distris, please let's do it , sane and with a plan.
There's already work going on to try to get a better solution into Debian lenny. There's a new "ia32-libs-tools" package about to enter Debian unstable, which would make it possible to replace the big ia32-libs package with more fine-grained individual ia32-lib* packages. (It may not be true multiarch, but still a lot better than the current situation.)
