Actually looking at it again I believe that simply removing Multi-Arch
for wheezy would be the best thing to do. My reasons for that are:

1) The release time likes one-line-fixes.
2) None of those libraries has external (i.e. outside of src:dspam)
   reverse dependencies. So the benefit of Multi-Arch is kind of
   limited.
3) Handling shared resources in M-A:same packages is yet an unsolved
   problem. As more packages stumble across this problem there will
   likely be a helper for such situations. This will not happen for
   wheezy, so save yourself a bit of time and just defer this issue.
