Some experimentation indicates that both of these problems seem to be
specific to binNMUs in t-p-u.

Each of these tests added an entry (or modified the existing one) for
cpu_1.4.3-11.2+b1 to the mips Packages file; all other data was taken
from the most recent live b2 run:

- unstable: binNMU migrates and appears in Heidi
- unstable with an added dependency on libmadeup: binNMU fails to
migrate during the main run as it would be uninstallable
- tpu: binNMU migrates during the main run but does not appear in Heidi
- tpu with added libmadeup dependency: binNMU migrates during the main
run but does not appear in Heidi
