No there are not, and I could prepare it yes, but I'm not sure there's
any point anyway as this alone (in wheezy) will not solve the
binNMU+multiarch case anyway, and as it's been said I think it's too
late for the other possible fixes.

This change in itself should not have any consequence as it should not
affect the normal build if the value is not being used, or maybe you
are referring to *when* the value is being used?
