Thanks, I've actually got through the problem, I think (update now in
process).
Solution in my case was to shoot a few debs by hand. I started from the
top of the list of installed packages, installing both packages listed
and their dependencies.
Packages included the following, which is probably a superset of the
actual required packages. I suspect interactions with libc and/or perl
as being the cause of this:
binutils_2.12.90.0.1-4_i386.deb
cpp-2.95_2.95.4-7_i386.deb
cpp_2.95.4-14_i386.deb
debconf_1.0.32_all.deb
