Bug#763909: viewmol: /usr/bin/viewmol missing for most archs

Hi Andreas

I attach a debdiff switching viewmol to source format 3.0 (quilt) and
debhelper 9.
This does the right thing on the Ubuntu PPA builders, at least for the
i386 and amd64 builds I tested.
I also attach my debian.tar.xz, as it may be easier to extract the
original source tarball followed by debian.tar.xz, rather than deal
with the direct changes to source/getmachine (documented in
debian/source.lintian-overrides and debian/patches/series).

If you feel the changes I have made are too drastic so close to
freeze, I'm sure that 150-getmachine_multiarch.patch can be
pre-applied in much the same way as 011_getmachine_HURD.diff, and
viewmol can remain in source format 1.0 for now.

I have not looked at a fix for kfreebsd yet, perhaps that should wait
until these changes are in testing first.

Regards
Graham
