This causes openafs to FTBFS.
The problem seems to have been triggered by texlive-latex-extra
2016.20161008-1, whose multirow.sty has a different \@xmultirow macro that
takes six arguments rather than five. Downgrading to texlive-latex-extra
2016.20160819-1 from stretch makes the problem goes away.
Since \@xmultirow is a private internal macro, dblatex should not rely on
it.
