When trying to install libc6:sparc on a system that already has
libc6-i386:amd64 installed the following happens:

# dpkg --unpack libc6_2.18-4_sparc.deb 
Selecting previously unselected package libc6:sparc.
(Reading database ... 11813 files and directories currently installed.)
Preparing to unpack libc6_2.18-4_sparc.deb ...
Unpacking libc6:sparc (2.18-4) ...
dpkg: error processing archive libc6_2.18-4_sparc.deb (--unpack):
 trying to overwrite '/lib/ld-linux.so.2', which is also in package libc6-i386 
2.18-4
Errors were encountered while processing:
 libc6_2.18-4_sparc.deb
#

Note that I am installing using dpkg --unpack, because libgcc1 is
currently out of date on sparc and therefore not installable. Once
gcc-4.9 is built, this combination will become installable again.
