Can you verify that this version supports predepends?

Start a second bash inside an x-term (or on the console or whatever), use
ps to see two shells, and then run the first two lines of the libc6
preinst:

set -e
dpkg --assert-support-predepends

Then check to make sure that both your shells are still running.
