The packages in experimental don't seem to build for all architectures -
another example is gnome-applets, which has been built for i386 only.

Sometimes it is because of failure to build on that architecture. Sometimes
it just doesn't build.

Look at the per-package build logs at buildd.debian.org for more information.
