It appears in the changelog as:
* control.in/main: switch multiarch-support to priority: required. Closes:
#677624.
It has been done to conform to the policy, as all multiarch packages
(pre-)depends on it, some of them being of priority required. Actually
this is probably an RC bug (policy violation). The only practical impact
I see is that the package is downloaded by debootstrap directly instead
of being downloaded as a dependency of other packages.

This has to be done once the updated patch is accepted upstream.
Actually it's something already done in the postinst of libc6, though
maybe we'll have to do it slightly earlier.
