Not a bug in ia32-libs as it is not involved here at all. The core
libraries and gcc come in their own packages on amd64.
Mak sure you have gcc-multilib and libc6-dev-i386 installed.

The "skipping" is perfeclty fine. That just means it finds a 64bit
version while searching for a 32bit version and ignores it.
As for not finding the 32bit version amke sure you actualy do have it
and then look with "strace -f -s1024" what arguments are passed to
ld. If there is no /usr/lib32 in that then you have a bug.
