I have no idea. Anyway, if you want to make sure I read something you post
in d-devel, please CC me.
And what about adding some magic to dpkg-buildpackage.orig to
monitor the output of `debian/rules build` and complain if --host
is missing on the commanline of ./configure?
We don't do that, at least not right now.
If you want to write a plugabble framework for such tests that sits on top
of dpkg-buildpackage, be my guest. Note that you don't need to modify
dpkg-buildpackage to implement it, just hook stdin/stdout/stderr and have
your overseer program call dpkg-buildpackage.
