I can't see why they should break: obviously any maintainer script using 
dpkg-query will query for the actual path in the package, or else it 
would not work on non-merged systems.
Over one year of experience with merged-/usr systems has not exposed any 
failures.

Lacking concrete examples of regressions and considering the fact that 
this cannot be solved by the usrmerge package, I am lowering the 
severity of this bug.
