Attached is my proposed debdiff for this, fixing multistrap to use the
host keyring instead of turning off gpg checking.  This is sufficient
for running multistrap with the ubuntu/armel profile from an existing
Ubuntu system (i.e., a system that has the Ubuntu keyring already in
trusted.gpg).  It does not solve the problem of bootstrapping a chroot
from repositories with whose signing key you don't already have a trust
relationship (e.g., bootstrapping an Ubuntu chroot from a Debian system;
or bootstrapping from a PPA), so a more general solution is probably
wanted here, but I think that shouldn't block us from getting a fix in
for the common case.

This also fixes the s/gcc/g++/ nit mentioned in the previous comment.

I've kept in the added 'reinstall=binutils-multiarch' line, but you
don't mention in the changelog why this change is needed - why does this
package need reinstallation?
