The second regex would seem to be unnecessary; the '|'s will allow only one,
and exactly one, of the choices, and the parens are right next to the or-list.

I'm using this:
:0
* ^Subject:[[:space:]]*Uploaded [1-90.-+][[:space:]]\((alpha|arm|powerpc|m68k|sparc|hurd-i386)\)
/dev/null

This is more specific, and therefor less likely to catch other mail.  (also,
I added hurd-i386 to the list -- forgot that one.)
