Thanks for the debdiff I've uploaded it to precise-proposed.

** Description changed:

+ [IMPACT]
+ 
+ * 0~git20110809-2 is not multiarch compatible. This means that currently a 
mix of amd64 and i386 variants can not be installed simultaneously. This is 
however required for e.g. wine installations which require a i386 version of 
mesa and therefore s2tc to be installed.
+ * The recently released Humble Bundle 5 makes use of the s2tc extension but 
requires both architecture versions to be installed for different games. See 
Bug #1012266
+ * The s2tc postinst/prerm scripts use update-alternatives to allow multiple 
versions of texture compression extensions to be installed and easy switching 
between these. The update-alternatives key was not multiarch compatible in -2 
which was fixed in -3.
+ * Currently the following bug reports are related to this sync Bug #1012266 
and Bug #1023184
+ 
+ [TESTCASE]
+ 
+  1. Install libtxc-dxtn-s2tc0 and libtxc-dxtn-s2tc0:i386
+  2. Notice that the link /usr/x86_64-linux-gnu/libtxc_dxtn_s2tc.so.0 was 
removed in favor of /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libtxc_dxtn_s2tc.so.0
+ 
+ [Regression Potential]
+ * There is really none. On update the the old handle is removed and replaced 
by new multiarch update-alternatives.

  I installed the games from Humble Indie Bundle 5 and got some problems.
  First Bastion worked fine. Then I installed Psyconauts and Bastion stopped 
working.
  Bastion depends on libtxc-dxtn-s2tc0:amd64 and Psyconatus depends on 
libtxc-dxtn-s2tc0:i386.
  Both libtxc-dxtn-s2tc0 packages use the same /etc/alternatives/libtxc-dxtn so 
they randomly overwrite each other.
