ispell is Architecture: any, but on a multiarch system it doesn't matter
which architecture you get as long as you can execute its binaries.
It's a build-dependency of 29 packages in unstable (admittedly many of
which are Architecture: all and so not very interesting for
cross-building, but not all of them). Accordingly, it would be helpful
to mark it Multi-Arch: foreign to avoid blocking cross-builds of those
packages; that would allow cross-builds to use the version of ispell for
the architecture being built on, which is generally best for tools as
opposed to libraries.
* Mark ispell Multi-Arch: foreign.
