finally recovered from a botched install while attempting to set up my system to compile cyanogenmod, running into a problem with file conflicts that were supposedly resolved years ago. the winning combination seems to have been:
sudo dpkg --configure -a
sudo apt-get -f install
sudo apt-get -o Dpkg::Options::="--force-overwrite" install libc6-dev-i386:amd64
now back to your regularly scheduled programming.
