I have 70 32bit installed on 11.0/x64.  When I tried to remove some, I
got dependencies on the packages from the 64bit versions.  I have
64bit flash installed.  I also have WINE installed, but it shows no
32bit dependencies.

Example:
Consolekit-0.2.10-14.4.x86_64 requires Consolekit-32bit
kdebase3-3.5.9-100.1.x86_64 requires Mesa-32bit

And many more x86_64 packages that require the 32bit package or a 32bit package.
