   Thank you. This is a key insight. I looked at the most recent amd64   
   build log from the buildds and found that the lib32 built notably lacked   
   -m32.   
      
   This pretty much renders lib32z1 unusable justifying grave severity, but   
   note that the essential zlib1g binary package is not impacted.   
      
   Then, I went on to diff the relevant versions. Would there be a chance   
   to use a public version constrol system for zlib maintenance? I found   
   this:

   This is an unfortunate mistake originating from Aurelien's patch for   
   s390 removal. Shit happens. Here is a fix.
