I replaced my 64-bit libraries with multilib versions per Alien's instructions and have successfully run 32-bit applications before (especially wine) in slack64 13.1. Problems arose when trying to use 32-bit Firefox (in order to use 32-bit flash).
I uninstalled the 64-bit Firefox that came with slack64 (64-bit Firefox works fine on my system). Then I downloaded and installed the Firefox tarball from the slack32 repository with no errors. When I go to run the program, though, Firefox crashes and I get Mozilla's crash report window, which shows gibberish in place of text.
When I run Firefox from the terminal I get the following output:

This probably means there was an error in the creation of:

If I uninstall 32-bit Firefox and then reinstall 64-bit Firefox, 64-bit firefox still works perfectly. Again, the main goal here is to use 32-bit flash. Any suggestions?
