I tried to install and older version of libc6 from the snapshot
repository but that didn't work.  I kept getting the segfault.  Here is
what I did that finally worked:

as root 
# /var/lib/dpkg/info/libc6-i686:i386.postinst configure
# dpkg --configure libc6
# apt-get -f install
# dpkg --configure -a

I don't know if all of those steps were required but it took care of the
problem.

On my other machine that is broken, it is segfaulting in the
pre-install.  That machine is a 64bit amd computer.  I haven't figured
out a way to fix it yet.
