I don't know what you are looking at but it is not the uploaded ia32-libs.

http://packages.debian.org/sid/amd64/ia32-libs/filelist
http://packages.debian.org/sid/ia64/ia32-libs/filelist

% ls -lh /lib/ld-linux.so.2 
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 20 Jun 13 20:52 /lib/ld-linux.so.2 -> /lib32/ld-linux.so.2*

% dpkg -S /lib/ld-linux.so.2
libc6-i386: /lib/ld-linux.so.2

% ls -l ia32-libs-core/debian/ia32-libs-core/lib
total 0
lrwxrwxrwx 1 mrvn mrvn 20 Apr 21 20:26 ld-linux.so.2 -> /lib32/ld-linux.so.2*

That is all as it should be on amd64 and ia64.

I incorporated all the parts that were still relevant, which wasn't much
as you can see from the changelog.

For the diff you need to filter out the relevant files:

So first you screwed up the security upload with your unanounced stable
NMU. Then you upload to unstable against the maintainers explicit
wishes. And now you threaten to destroy the nearly completed
ia32-libs{,-core,-gtk} transition into something slihtly more
maintainable. But is all our fault. Give yourself a gold star.
