Assuming _tree_Free is actually not segfaulting as written. You can get
rid of the cast entirely if you like, C will automatically convert to
and from a (void *). (C++ won't)

I'm not quite sure how the details would work, but maybe you could make
a question for each dependency that can be satisfied by multiple udebs,
and just query that each time it's needed.
That'd make it awkward to have a virtual package provided by one udeb at
the start but by a different udeb later, maybe. (You wouldn't get asked
about it automatically, you'd have to go nonlinear or out of your way
or something) This may not matter.
Having looked at where d-i is upto, and how far it's got to go, I'm
inclined to think that aiming for d-i to be the installer for woody (for
all architectures, for all environments) isn't completely unreasonable.
We'll probably have to make a definite decision which one to go with
for woody by the end of November, though, to make sure we've got time
to hack on b-f if we need to.
Cheers,
