When cross building eglibc I get the following error:

dpkg-checkbuilddeps: Unmet build dependencies: ... symlinks ...

I get this error even though symlinks is installed and the desired version
(build architecture) is installed. The dependency is not fulfilled,
because symlinks lacks the Multi-Arch: foreign declaration.

Please consider the attached patch.
