Public bug reported:

I am playing with MultiArch toolchain and got interesting bug from APT.

How to reproduce:

1. create fresh oneiric chroot
2. follow https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MultiarchHowto and enable 'armel' architecture
3. run "apt-get install libpng-dev:armel" - it will install gcc-4.6:armel binutils:armel and lot of *-dev:armel packages
4. run "file /usr/bin/gcc-4.6" to check is it ARM binary ("/usr/bin/gcc-4.6: ELF 32-bit LSB executable, ARM, version 1 (SYSV), dynamically linked (uses shared libs), for GNU/Linux 2.6.16, stripped")
5. run "apt-get install gcc-4.6"

You should get something like this:
