wheezy-backports should be building just fine on kfreebsd-* (I have
several successfull logs there as well. as for squeeze-backports-sloppy,
there's some technality to be fixed [0]. So as far as wanna-build is
involved everything's in place apart buildd-admins not having these
suites configured [1].

buildd admins: you need to have a schroot config in
/etc/schroot/chroot.d with name
squeeze-backports-sloppy-${arch}-sbuild and in ~buildd/.builddrc add
squeeze-backports-sloppy to squeeze-backports (aptitude, upload to
backports-master) and wheezy-backports to experimental (aptitude,
upload to ftp-master). That should be it.

We have a rather strict limit on length of mount-points and therefore
need to keep CHROOT_NAME short. that's done for $normal by replacing
kfreebsd-amd64 with ka in the name and adding an alias. Unfortunately
that's not enough for squeeze-backports-sloppy-$something.
I can not, trivially, shorten backports-sloppy with the same trick
because setup scripts parse $CHROOT_NAME to add sources.list entries
and need the full 'backports-sloppy' substring. changing to
$CHROOT_ALIAS fails as well because the parsing gets confused by the
'-' in kfreebsd-amd64.
