Ia32-libs gets verry irregular updates so that is a quite likely
possibility. With multiarch finaly taking over there is even less
incentive for ia32-libs to get updated.

But if you can confirm that the DRI problem is solved by a simple update
then I will do one.

Here is what you do:

1) download the source    : apt-get source ia32-libs
2) optionally             : cp sources.list.deb sources.list.local
                            edit sources.list.local
3) update precompiled debs: ./fetch-and-build
4) build package          : dpkg-buildpackage -us -uc -b
5) install                : dpkg -i ../ia32-libs*deb

Step 3 might fail because packages have been removed from the archive,
in which case an update won't be so simple. In that case you might have
to edit the packages.list or give up and let me know.
