This can be solved by ensuring that it's installed in sync with dpkg, eg by letting dpkg depends on multiarch-no-foreign, no? This would be a supplementary hassle to cross-grade a system from one arch to another though. Or maybe we don't need the dependency but we can just get it installed during debootstrap?
