The packages listed above fail to satisfy their cross build
dependencies, because their dependency on autoconf2.64 is unsatisfiable.
In general, Architecture: all packages can never satisfy cross
Build-Depends unless marked Multi-Arch: foreign. In this case, such a
marking is correct, because autoconf2.64 does not have any maintainer
scripts and it does not expose any of its dependencies:
* m4 is Multi-Arch: foreign
* debianutils is Multi-Arch: foreign
* autoconf is Multi-Arch: foreign
* perl is Multi-Arch: allowed
* libfile-temp-perl is provided by perl-base, which is Multi-Arch: no
Thus it can only expose architecture awareness via perl, but perl is
only used for executing scripts as is done in e.g. autoconf.
