I tried getting zsnes building properly on amd64 karmic for a while today and ultimately gave up. Here's what I've learned:

ia32-libs is complete enough (we even have libao now), so that shouldn't be an issue
sdl-config is hard-coded to point to /usr/lib, but we need it to point to /usr/lib32

The package in its current form contains the old hack to manuall make a lib folder and create .so symlinks to /usr/lib32. This should no longer be necessary as ia32-libs now provides them. However, if I remove this logic from the package build script, it fails after sdl-config as it doesn't look for SDL in /usr/lib32 (despite it being there). If I leave the logic in, the package builds for some reason, however it segfaults instantly on startup.

I've added a task to libsdl to deal with the hard-coding, although this may end up just not being fixed until multiarch
