Good question. I picked up hal from the ia32libs package, as one of the goals of
multiarch is to get rid of ia32libs. If hal is vanishing anyways, then this 
patch can be ignored.

nope :) Only that libraries are now installed to the right place and that dynamic
linker still picks them up as expected.
