I already had ia32-libs installed, so thought I'd try ia32-libs-dev.
There was no installation candidate, so I took what was offered as an
alternative, which was: 

libc6-dev-i386 (2.8~20080505-0ubuntu7) ...
lib32gomp1 (4.3.2-1ubuntu11) ...
gcc-4.3-multilib (4.3.2-1ubuntu11) ...
gcc-multilib (4:4.3.1-1ubuntu2) ...
lib32bz2-1.0 (1.0.5-0.1ubuntu1) ...
libbz2-dev (1.0.5-0.1ubuntu1) ...
lib32bz2-dev (1.0.5-0.1ubuntu1) ...
lib32z1-dev (1:1.2.3.3.dfsg-12ubuntu1) ...

Hope that's useful.

Thought it might take more than that!

`aclocal' and `autoconf' again.
autoreconf: automake failed with exit status: 1

I'm not going to mess at this level without guidance, I think!
Suggestions, please?
