Bug#40356: dpkg: prints architecture "alphapca56" on "alpha"

[Falk Hueffner <falk.hueffner@student.uni-tuebingen.de>]

Package: dpkg
Version: 1.4.1.3
Severity: normal

% dpkg --print-architecture
dpkg: warning, architecture `alphapca56' not in remapping table
alphapca56

As root, it normally prints correctly "alpha"; but while building a
package, it outputs the wrong architecture, making the built package
unusable.
