This is wrong. Sven, please stop saying that nothing changed when you're
simply annoyed that it's not finished yet.

In the last 6 months we had:
- multiarch support added to ld by Aurelien jarno
- a report from HP/Canonical about how to go forward
- another proposition from Goswin van Brederlow (see his recent work and
  bugreports on -dpkg)
