I think that the whole ia32-libs ld.so.conf handling can be be dropped
as soon as the libc6(-dev)-i386 packages are used instead of the libc6
packages from the i386 port. The dynamic linker will automatically
search the slibdir and libdir paths for libraries. There is no need to
explicitly add those paths to ld.so.conf. The linker from the i386 port
has slibdir=/lib and libdir=/usr/lib, which is wrong on amd64, but the
linker from the libc6-i386 package will automatically know the correct
paths.
