You'll have to figure out what that 'set' of packages is.  The only thing I 
can think of would be wine.i386 if you wanted that, and firefox.i386 if 
nspluginwrapper doesn't work for you.  Everything else is the multilib case, 
and that's what's made available in the x86_64 repo.  You're not getting i386 
versions of everything, you're getting i386 versions of what is considered 
the multilib set, which is determined by the multilib function of mash.
