Issues with the experimental dpkg

Hi,

I experienced some problems with dpkg from experimental:

- It seems to break type-handling. The following command
  returns an empty string instead of an arch list:

  $ type-handling any linux-gnu

- I had problems downgrading dpkg to the unstable version because
  of the md5sum* diversions. I noticed that in the
  /var/lib/dpkg/diversions file, "coreutils" had been replaced
  by the ':' character. I suspect it did happen during the
  attempt to downgrade.

Cheers,
