Thanks, everyone, for your help with this problem! I really appreciate all the suggestions.
I finally figured out how to download foreign architecture packages using aptitude & "-o APT::Architecture=foreignarch".
I think this feature is unfortunately very hidden, so I contributed this patch: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=277123
However, I'm still searching for a tool to download packages' dependancies.
Thanks again! Jack
