Nope, it's not a libc6-i386 bug, which works correctly out of the box.
The problem is that libnss-mdns modifies /etc/nsswitch.conf while it
does not provide the 32-bit version of the library.
Either remove libnss-mdns or install lib32nss-mdns to fix the problem.
I am reassigning the bug to libnss-mdns, as it should either not set
[NOTFOUND=return] in /etc/nsswitch.conf, or depends on lib32nss-mdns on
biarch architectures.
