Thomas, just apply your best judgement, taking into account two
factors, mostly: number of affected arches, and 'heaviness' of your
package perhaps. If, e.g., at least half of the arches would need
manual intervention, probably re-uploading is ok.
OTOH, if the package takes really long to compile and has for example
been already built in the slowest ones, a request for requeue may be
worth it.
Some buildd admin may wish to correct me wrt the above if it's not
accurate. I'm no buildd person.
