Not a bug. Being architecture all or architecture any is a property of
the version as a package can change from any to all (and back) between
versions. The stanzas in the extended file refer to all versions
instead, which means that arch:all is the same as arch:native, so this
is correct.
Also, where is the bug? The extended file is an internal state file, so
as long as we parse it correctly, everything is fine. If you need the
info included in that file, ask e.g. "apt-mark" for it. Nobody knows if
the next version of apt would be renaming the file, be binary or use a
mysql database to store that info instead (okay, the later is unlikely…
as in: Over my dead body!)
** Changed in: apt (Ubuntu)
