The issue as noted above is that there isn't always a 32 bit loader
present if you add and then remove packages in certain orders.
ia32-libs (and things that depend on it like Wine) only slightly work
around this problem by pulling in ia32-libs-multiarch which forces an
install of the multiarch libc, which in turn installs a loader.  If you
remove it manually you break it again, however.

The fix belongs in the eglibc package, which should make this situation
impossible (probably by dpkg-diversions).
