Ahem.  I tried on my current x86_64 installation where at this
moment no i?86 packages are present.  Asking yum for nspluginwrapper.i386
brought extra 20M of stuff split as follows:

That does not look like excessive at all.  Not that most of these are
really small libraries.  Not too much in a megabyte range.  It probably
would be better to ask explicitely for glibc.i686 in a yum request.
To wit: 'yum install nspluginwrapper.i386 glibc.i686'

Yes, if you want to use flash-plugin you definitely need that one too.
This will have its own dependencies; like pulseaudio-libs.
