I suspect that it tries to puts the 386 module in because it's the first one 
in alphanumberical order. It looks like that for some reason, it's not 
checking the entire list; instead, it's just installing the first one on the 
list. 

This may be a dpkg issue, not apt-get. I always use the aptitude and I'm 
getting similar behavior.
