Let's see.  I have some changes pending that make config changes easier.

Also we might be able to add a linux-libc-dev-arch that builds a
standalone version again and is only built with a special build profile,
but it still needs the package to know more information then dpkg does
provide.

Or you inject a new reboostrap-specific package that just adds a
symlink /usr/lib/$DEB_HOST_MULTIARCH/asm pointing to the appropriate
/usr/lib/linux/uapi/$ARCH if linux-libc-dev does not include this.

I would start with adding Provides and later Breaks for them to
linux-libc-dev.  The compilers have proper search paths.  (And they
violate the policy, so the devils are with those already.)
