Where do you get the 32bit firefox from? From the error it sounds like
you got that from ubuntu.

The ia32-libs-gtk package in Debian is currently broken. A new upload
of libpango should be up now and ia32-libs-gtk will follow with a
fixed pango.

Libpangohack is Ubuntus way to work around the pango problem and you
have to remove that LD_PRELOAD from your firefox script.
