Bug description:
  With the new explicit g++ 4.9 dependency apt falls over when trying to
  install cross-dependencies for e.g. Mir:

  The following packages have unmet dependencies:
   g++-4.9:armhf : Depends: gcc-4.9:armhf (= 4.9.1-4ubuntu3) but it is not going to be installed
  E: Build-dependencies for sbuild-build-depends-mir-dummy could not be satisfied.

  This means cross-building doesn't work for any packages that have that
  dependency added. We were told it's going to be fine due to 4.9
  becoming default, but it is now, and the situation remains.
