libgl1-nvidia-glx-i386 dates back to the time when there was only
libgl1-nvidia-glx. No EGL, no GLES.

So libgl1-nvidia-glx-i386 only tries to pull in the GL/GLX part, but
nothing of the new stuff. That doesn't sound correct.

I'm thinking about separating the *GL* library dependencies from
nvidia-driver into a multi-arch:same package, e.g. nvidia-driver-libs,
and have that recommend nvidia-driver-libs-i386 on amd64.
nvidia-driver-libs-i386 (i386 only) would be the replacement for
libgl1-nvidia-glx-i386

Will implement this in 355 and send to NEW
