This is also my understanding, Raphael has probably missed the indication of
the package being in non-free.

As a sidenote, and to promote the summary on http://wiki.debian.org/buildd a
bit, there is a non-free buildd network. This has taken perfect care of my
non-free packages so far, but it seems defunct for mips and armel these days.
