It bit me trying to get an ARM cross compiler setup going.  Kinda scary when 
your package manager goes wonky and it starts looking like there's no way out.  
Thanks to lots of things like this(see below) there was a way out:
sudo dpkg --purge --force-depends "gcc-multilib"
sudo dpkg --purge --force-depends "lib32z1-dev"
sudo dpkg --purge --force-depends "libc6-dev-x32"
