Sorry about that.  I'm also not particularly concerned about the
severity other than believing it should not be a release-critical level.
Feel free to change if it you like.

The important part to me is the wontfix tag, and/or (even better?) being
able to mark this as blocked by a bug on whatever package (Goswin's
suggestion of binutils probably makes the most sense) needs to get
updated to eventually allow us to obsolete ia32-libs entirely.
