There's no package using usr/lib/i486-linux-gnu or
usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu. Those paths are even incorrect, compilation on
amd64 would need overriding DEB_HOST_GNU_TYPE. And I won't use ../lib32.

/usr/lib32 works, it's tested. It's standard. It's the one currently
used by Debian; either this or /emul/ia32-linux/usr/lib. On the other
hand, what's preventing the use of DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS=arch32bit? What
packages are using usr/lib/$(DEB_HOST_GNU_TYPE)?

The rpath points to /usr/lib32. That shouldn't be a problem, but lintian
complains because rpath is deprecated in Debian. Perhaps you already
know this:
