Why? I wanted PCSX2 emulator to work without problem in Archlinux and
all from a sudden I correct to Multilib standards more than 30 lib32
packages. Basically I just wanted to have gobject-introspection
working because it is a dependency for other packages - I don't know
much more than that.

Taking your idea of disabling gobject-introspection, I compiled
lib32-gstreamer0.10 adding "--enable-introspection=no". I was able to
generate the 32 bit library, but I got some warning messages that made
me believe that it expected a complete 64 bit compilation (see sample
output below). The question is: Is it correct to disable
introspection/python?
