Longterm I wonder if it would be possible to have a cross-architecture
dependency that means all configured architectures. E.g.

Package: multiarch-nss-foo-module
Depends: nss-foo-module:*
Description: nss foo modules for multiarch systems
 This package pulls in the nss-foo-module for any architecture
 configured on your system.
