1) dpkg: support dpkg -i foo.dsc, which unpacks the source to
/usr/src/ or something
2) apt: parse Sources.gz and add them to architecture src,
"apt-get install binutils:src" downloads the dsc, orig.tar,
debian.tar, ... and then passes the dsc file to dpkg for installing
2b) fix other tools like pbuilder-satify-depends, sbuild, ...
3) Sources can use Build-Depends: binutils:src using the multiarch
syntax to qualify archs
