This is fixed in newer versions of multistrap, I'm trying to arrange
a backport to squeeze. There are no particular issues with using
multistrap from Sid or Wheezy currently but the upcoming MultiArch
transition may have an effect, once dpkg gains support for installing
foreign arch packages. So the time to install multistrap from Wheezy /
do the backport is now.

There should be no need to specify base-files and other than that, the
conf is the same as the packaged squeeze.conf, so there are no
problems there. (It is advisable to use codenames instead of suites now
that the problems with apt and codenames is resolved in stable. Only
oldstable is still affected by that.)

You'll be able to drop that package with the updated multistrap, it
uses internal perl support instead.
