Is this multiarch specific?

IIRC I got this noise way before multiarch, there was just way less
noise before there were packages aptitude does not understand.

Now that aptitude understands multiarch packages you should not get
bazillions of errors.

Sure, it's still potential problem that there is no rate limit on
these messages or anything but it's no longer likely that you will not
see any UI at all due to messages rolling all over your screens
constantly.
