I suppose here that your patch applies in i386, since you would possibly
not have buit your package (of course, you should double-check it, since
the patch may not have been applied in the build that you generated).
Anyway, are you sure that you can apply the patch without errors? Are
you sure that the patch that is included in the source package is clean?
If you are using the 3.0 quilt format, then you would have to watch out
for you applying the patch (implicitly, via dpkg) and an
automatically-generated patch named debian/patches/debian-*.

I hope that the points listed above are useful in tracking the problem.
