Is there any hope of a fix for this?

If there's no fix in the works, then does this affect 32 bit Linux
binaries, or is 32 bit linux emul breakage due to some different causes?

If 32 bit binaries work, and the emul problems there are fixable, that
would be enough for me.

The 32 bit emul problems I've encountered so far are
  - chown, chgrop (there could be more) not working
  - I've a hard time with citrix client (v10)
    * it can't find motif key bindings, even though I have
      run xmbind, have ~/.motifbindings, etc.
    * it usually crashes on startup with glibc complaining
      about its memory pool getting corrupted
