[SOLVED]enabled multilib - not working

Hey,

I enabled the multilib repo as per the wiki:

Wiki entry:

[multilib]
#SigLevel = PackageOptional
Include = /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist

pacman.conf:

#[multilib]
#SigLevel = PackageOptional
Include = /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist

pacman.mirrorlist:

## Great Britain
#Server = ftp://mirror.lividpenguin.com/pub/archlinux/$repo/os/$arch
#Server = http://mirror.lividpenguin.com/pub/archlinux/$repo/os/$arch
#Server = ftp://mirror.bytemark.co.uk/archlinux/$repo/os/$arch
#Server = http://mirror.bytemark.co.uk/archlinux/$repo/os/$arch
#Server = ftp://mirror.cinosure.com/archlinux/$repo/os/$arch
#Server = http://mirror.cinosure.com/archlinux/$repo/os/$arch
Server = ftp://mirrors.uk2.net/pub/archlinux/$repo/os/$arch
#Server = http://archlinux.mirrors.uk2.net/$repo/os/$arch

Update:

[aking@arch lib32-curl]$ sudo pacman -Syyu multilib/gcc-multilib
:: Synchronizing package databases...

Any ideas?
