This prevents crossbuilding on amd64 for packages depending on f.ex. libudev-dev:i386

Fixed on my system with the following:

$ apt-get --reinstall install libkmod2
$ apt-get install libkmod2:i386

Not certain what would have caused the mismatch between the changelogs in the first place, especially since this package is Multi-Arch.
