If someone figures out a sensible plan that will work on both
OpenSUSE/Fedora style multilib and Debian multiarch, then

The downstream multilib patches were one of several reasons my last
attempt at doing continuous integration (automatically mash new versions
from git repos) into the Fedora packages failed.
