Got it working. Took the full apt-get command as multistrap did, but
removed the three perl modules in question as well as debconf-i18n
which needs them, but I never need and which I consider to be
primarily disk space waste.

But this just got stuff downloaded. Next step was to put that reduced
package list into the multistrap.conf's "packages=" and set
"omitrequired=true" (needs to be in the [General] section) and
restart. That worked. Yay!

Will likely try to build these three packages locally and see how far
I come.
