Ah, I missed that mdb_dump is not producing an arch-specific binary but
an text output. It's platform-independent then, indeed. Perhaps it'd be
interesting to gzip it, though.

Then it's not multi-arch any more.

It seems that this mark has disappeared. It was probably just a
dependency that got an issue. That's not a problem per se, it's just a
bit less than ideal.
