Hi

Ubuntu 'natty' switched to multiarch recently and my cross toolchain
packages started to fail to build. Most of problems were fixed but then
dpkg-cross hit us.

Today I looked at dpkg-cross and made attached patch to handle problem.
What patch does is converting multiarch packages into old style ones.
There is no extra switch like "--force-even-when-multiarch" and
"--convert-anyway -A" is used instead. This is change against latest CVS
code (dpkg-cross r1.83).

From my tests it looks like it does proper job.
