It’s not.

ii  reportbug      7.6.0        all          reports bugs in the Debian distribution

ii  qemu-user-static:i386                       1:4.2-1                         i386         QEMU user mode emulation binaries (static version)

$ reportbug qemu-user-static

Unsure… versions in the archive can differ between architectures,
at least in unstable and for certain packages (Java used to be an
example of this where some had openjdk-based 7 and some had gcj-
based 5 for a while, some time ago), but not sure whether this is
of any relevance for that question.
