Attached is my proposed debdiff for this, fixing multistrap to use the host keyring instead of turning off gpg checking. This is sufficient for running multistrap with the ubuntu/armel profile from an existing Ubuntu system (i.e., a system that has the Ubuntu keyring already in trusted.gpg). It does not solve the problem of bootstrapping a chroot from repositories with whose signing key you don't already have a trust relationship (e.g., bootstrapping an Ubuntu chroot from a Debian system; or bootstrapping from a PPA), so a more general solution is probably wanted here, but I think that shouldn't block us from getting a fix in for the common case.

This also fixes the s/gcc/g++/ nit mentioned in the previous comment.

I've kept in the added 'reinstall=binutils-multiarch' line, but you don't mention in the changelog why this change is needed - why does this package need reinstallation?
