Can you give any examples?

I thought cross-arch package dependencies were still forbidden, as of
the last time the subject came up on -devel or -policy, largely for the
reason that you can't guarantee that the foreign architecture in
question will be enabled on any given user's system.

I'd be interested in details of what you saw happen when multiarch was
introduced, beyond the still limited summary form you've provided in
another mail. It doesn't seem to match anything I saw, or anything I've
previously seen anyone report having seen.
