Thank you for the clarification.  However the libgdcm-java package is
*not* marked Multi-Arch: same.  I don't know if the JARs are identical
yet, but there's still the issue of duplicating the same binary again
and again in the mirrors.  So I maintain that we should avoid arch:any
-java packages unless there are other circumstances that it.
