Wheezy Freeze Policy -- let's release!
Changes which can be considered

There are some packages we know we won't approve. So as not to have everyone 
contact us at once about such packages, here are the guidelines for changes 
that will be accepting into testing during the freeze:

    1. fixes for release critical bugs (i.e., bugs of severity critical, grave, 
and serious) in all packages;
    2. changes for release goals, if they are not invasive;

[...]
-----

MultiArch support is a release goal, and the fix for this bug is clearly not 
invasive nor big:


$ curl -s 
'http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?msg=5;filename=0001-build-for-multiarch.patch;att=1;bug=640499'

Where is the problem? What prevents the release team allowing this upload for 
Wheezy?
