Bug Description
[Impact]
Marking rpm2cpio "Multi-arch: foreign" will allow 32-bit packages to depend on rpm2cpio and install successfully on 64-bit releases of Ubuntu which have multi-arch support.
Some 3rd party apps depend on rpm2cpio.
[Test Case]
Build and install i386 packages on amd64 and attempt to depend on rpm2cpio.
[Regression Potential]
Minimal as this packaging change only affects multiarch status.
[Additional information]
If accepted into Saucy, I'll submit patches for p, q, and r.

I'm not sure about addressing the rest of the binaries in the rpm source package. I'm only blocked on rpm2cpio specifically. I'll submit a patch, but I can expand it if needed. Thanks.
