Bug Description

Ubuntu 14.04 i386 offers arm/aarch64/powerpc/powerpc64 gcc cross-compiler packages:
gcc[-4.8]-aarch64-linux-gnu
gcc[-4.8]-arm-linux-gnueabihf
gcc[-4.8]-powerpc-linux-gnu
gcc[-4.8]-powerpc64le-linux-gnu

but they have "Conflicts: gcc-multilib", making it impossible to install them together with -m64 support (cross-compiling to amd64).

gcc-multilib isn't just a "meta-package" that could be omitted either, because it provides the /usr/include/asm symlink (see also bug #774215).

Similar report: bug #1311711
