Bug#153305: dpkg: --root no longer roots outside the base install



This bug still exists as of dpkg-1.10.9, I just got caught by it
while trying to run "dpkg-repack --root=/sd0s3 ...", which just
calls "dpkg --root=/sd0s3...", which then does the wrong thing.

As a workaround, I just chroot-ed to "/sd0s3" and ran
"dpkg-repack" from there.
