Finally had a chance to do a clean install on a 32-bit machine, and got
farther than ever before on that platform, which suggests the original
cause of this bug report has been overcome by events. However, when
attempting to login, I found precisely this:

https://support.steampowered.com/kb_article.php?ref=4090-RTKZ-4347
"The Steam Browser is Disabled"

and to quote from further down on this page:

	"Linux

	32-bit Linux distributions are also no longer supported. Please
	install a 64-bit Linux distribution to make use of the Steam
	browser."

This sounds to me like it might be the end of the road for Steam on
32-bit.
