Because libwayland0 is a dependency of libcairo2, this bug makes
multiarch pretty much unusable on a GUI system.  Multiarch is necessary
for things like Skype and web browsers with a reasonable memory
footprint (unless you want to go back to 2008 and run a 32 bit system on
an AMD64 CPU).

  $ apt-rdepends -r libwayland0  | grep -v '^  .*$' | sort -u | grep '^lib' | 
wc -l

This bug makes around 1400 packages uninstallable, as a conservative
bound.  Definitely not 'wishlist'.
