I could get a test in arm yet , but on ppc64le (which failed) I got :

+ cd debhelper
+ dpkg-architecture -qDEB_BUILD_GNU_TYPE
powerpc64le-linux-gnu
+ dpkg-architecture -qDEB_HOST_GNU_TYPE
dpkg-architecture: warning: unknown CC system type ppc64le-redhat-
linux, falling back to default (native compilation)
powerpc64le-linux-gnu
+ cc -dumpmachine
ppc64le-redhat-linux

but not failed in aarch64 with:

+ cd debhelper
+ dpkg-architecture -qDEB_BUILD_GNU_TYPE
aarch64-linux-gnu
+ dpkg-architecture -qDEB_HOST_GNU_TYPE
aarch64-linux-gnu
+ cc -dumpmachine
aarch64-redhat-linux

Thanks,
