Change of plan -  or at least a clarification. The 'mv' support is for
the final files created by dpkg - /var/lib/dpkg/status - not the
maintainer scripts themselves, those will have gone from the packages
being downloaded. One option there is to obtain those scripts by
repeating the multistrap with normal Grip packages, if you really want
the original maintainer scripts. That's a price worth paying for Baked.

... and the maintainer scripts. Probably not worth it, but possible.
