What did the /etc/nsswitch.conf file look like after you installed only
the i586 package?  What I see is that

   mdns4_minimal [NOTFOUND=return]

gets inserted into the hosts line.  This shouldn't cause any problems
(and my testing confirms this).  In this case the missing x86-64 module
is causes the mdns4_minimal entry to be ignored.

If there is something like [UNAVAIL=return] or [!SUCCESS=return] then
this is a problem because the UNAVAIL action is used in case the module
is missing.
