Not all packages are yet multi-archified, that is, declare that they can be used on a multi-arch system (and how). In particular, since libgif4 does not declare Multi-Arch:same, it cannot be installed at the same time as another architecture of itself: libgif4:amd64 and libgif4:i386 ‘conflict’. Since it also not declares Multi-Arch:foreign, the libgif4:amd64 package cannot be used to satisfy the dependency of openjdk-7-jre:i386 (and vice versa, libgif4:i386 cannot be used to satisfy the dependency of emacs23:amd64). At the current moment, your best bet is probably to use an i386 chroot or wait until libgif4 gets multiarchified. There is already a bug report about this (http://bugs.debian.org/647497).
