If all your variables are binary, then some sort of loglinear analysis
should be applicable.You are essentially manipulating a contingency
table. I believe that is a pretty standard biometric technique for
binary/count variables, and should be covered in Agresti's Categorical
Data Analysis and/or Hosmer and Lemeshow's Applied Logistic
Regression. I've never understood it well though. I don't know whether
the multivariate extensions are feasible, either.
