Hi,

It would be useful for psutils to be marked "Multi-Arch: foreign", to
indicate that it can satisfy dependencies of packages of other
architectures.  Although Debian's dpkg doesn't yet do anything special
with this, it's safe to add this tag in advance of package manager
support.

This would help me make one of my packages (groff) cross-buildable using
multiarch.

  * Mark psutils Multi-Arch: foreign.
