Title:
  gdb should be marked "Multi-arch: allowed"

Status in “gdb” package in Ubuntu:
  In Progress
Status in “gdb” source package in Precise:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  [Impact]
  Marking gdb "Multi-arch: allowed"  will allow 32-bit packages to depend on "gdb:any" and install successfully on 64-bit releases of Ubuntu from 11.04 onward

  This package is still required by some third party applications.

  [Test Case]
  Build and install i386 packages on amd64 and attempt to link against the architecture specific library.

  [Regression Potential]
  Regression minimal as this change applies to building of library..

  Can we make this change for precise?
