Are you sure this isn't due to archive skew? apt-get -f install should try to install the dependent i386 packages, but they must be exactly the same version number as the 64-bit versions on your system.

When someone uploads a new package, say, libglu1-mesa, sometimes the i386 build finishes before the amd64 one, or vice-versa, and you get a situation like you've witnessed.

Can you try again please?

That said, I'm considering just hard-depending wine1.4:amd64 on wine1.4-i386 to avoid situations like the above where you get stuck with 64-bit-only wine entirely. The downside is wine would be uninstallable whenever the archive was skewed (which is often during the development release, but fortunately never in a stable release).
