As long as you don't want to run one of the (couple of) third-party apps
that need i396 in Etch without also putting in an i386 chroot.  Note,
that many 32-bit apps will actually run in amd64 with the 32-bit libs
package.  I don't know about acroread since I don't use it.  Iceweasel
32-bit with flashplayer needed a chroot.  A chroot isn't much to set up
or maintain.
