Bug#562788: lintian complains about hppa64 binaries on hppa

I'm not sure what else to say beyond what the long tag description already
says:

N: apparently-corrupted-elf-binary
N:
N:   This appears to be an ELF file but objdump -T doesn't recognize it as
N:   valid. This may be a mistake or a corrupted file, you may need to
N:   install binutils-multiarch on the system running lintian so that
N:   non-native binaries are handled correctly, or it may be a
N:   misidentification of a file as ELF that actually isn't.

If you already have binutils-multiarch installed, my guess would be a bug
in binutils-multiarch for handling the hppa64 architecture.
