devscripts is Architecture: any due to (I believe) debpkg and libvfork,
but on a multiarch system it doesn't matter which architecture you get
as long as you can execute its binaries. It's also a build-dependency
of 290 packages in unstable. Accordingly, it would be helpful to mark
it Multi-Arch: foreign to avoid blocking cross-builds of those packages.
* debian/control: Mark devscripts Multi-Arch: foreign.
