Check /debootstrap/debootatrap.log :)
The output I posted was from both debootstrap std{out,err} and the
log, interleaved. I'm launching tail -f /debootstrap/debootatrap.log
in parallel with deboostrap itself, following Samuel's instructions.

Perhaps, but then you'd need to go over the other usages of USER32 and
verify they don't imply x86_64.

Yeah, that'd probably be better.

Because there's no longer a need to do anything special for fs/gs,
they are now handled the same way as es/ds, namely ifdef'ed out on
!USER32.
Maybe it would make sense to define new macros like PUSH_SEGS and
POP_SEGS that would push/pop all of (ds, es, fs, gs), but that'd be a
separate change from this patch.
