bzip2 currently Build-Depends on gcc-multilib for some architectures
without using this dependency. While this is only a nuisance for native
builds, it makes bzip2 bd-uninstallable in a cross setting, because
these gcc-multilib would need cross-translation[1], but this feature is
unavailable to the archive at this point. Since bzip2 is transitively
essential, it must be cross-buildable to bootstrap new ports.

Long story short: Please apply the attached patch.
