I had the same problem. In the end i copied libmpfr to /usr/lib32 from 10.04 
(lucid) and it worked.

I can check my 12.04 installation on Monday if needed. Btw this is how it 
looks like on my debian machine:

$ find /usr | grep libmpfr
/usr/lib/libmpfr.so.4
/usr/lib/libmpfr.so.4.0.0
/usr/lib32/libmpfr.so.1.1.1
/usr/lib32/libmpfr.so.1

Maybe you can also use libmpfr from debian.

Best solution would be of course to use 64bit toolchain - i wish i had time to 
do it...
