Bah. My bad. A new version of emdebian-crush which does not depend on
apt-cross is in NEW awaiting experimental because that depends on the
new xapt package.

As outlined on IRC, I'll upload a version of the emdebian-crush source
package which drops the relevant scripts from the emdebian-crush binary
package so that apt-cross dependency can be dropped. That version can
then go into unstable, I'll ask for a freeze exception and it can
migrate, allowing apt-cross to be removed.
