Given that:
* icu-devtools currently can cause broken native builds (which is a
regression from wheezy).
* icu was not multiarch-aware in wheezy, so making it non-multiarch is
not a regression.
* Some packages (e.g. libxml2) become cross-buildable by removing
M-A:foreign.
I believe that removing M-A:foreign is the right fix with minimal
changes for jessie. To that end I created a patch. Any objections to
NMUing that?
