AFAI can tell, anybody can host an archive of packages built from stable
sources for a scc or unofficial port. And - if I read the conditions on
becoming a fully supported Debian arch right - then having security support
for an external pool of this arch is a good indicator that it should be a
fully supported stable release (amongst other things).
If on the other hand nobody can be found to recompile packages after DSAs are
released for this arch, I believe the arch shouldn't be released for Debian
as stable.
