The missing information:

The affected package is linux-libc-dev-i386-cross.  The package name was
listed wrong as linux-libc-dev-cross-<arch>, which does not exist, even
after replacing the placeholder.

The contents are installed into /usr/i386-linux-gnu (derived from
multiarch).  However it is expected to be installed into
/usr/i686-linux-gnu (derived from the gnu type).

For the future:

Please use reportbug, it will catch some problems.  And please fill bugs
against the binary package that actually shows the broken behaviour, not
the source package, unless reportbugs overrides you (and for
linux-libc-dev-* it will not).

Well, Jim, I'm not much of an actor either.
