Package: dpkg

A C++ library like libstdc++ built for 32bit and 64bit in the same source can have different symbol names in the 32bit and 64bit builds, and different symbol names on different architectures. The current `arch' attribute only allows selection of the architecture.

dpkg should allow the biarch architecture names in the `arch' attribute and do the right thing when processing libs, e.g. arch=i386 should trigger for a symbol in a 32bit library for a build on amd64.
