Re: additions to dpkg-architecture
Hello,
There some tools/project who help to rebuild source pacckages, a bit
like gentoo.
Apt-build
http://julien.danjou.info/article-apt-build.html
Debian From Scratch (unlike LFS they use source packages and not
*.tar.gz)

About naming policy for cpus arch, I think like others that's not needed
yet in debian, but can be adopt in emdebian, for few packages, to host
packages which make sense to be build with "cpu depending compilation".
I think mostly about multimedia applications and as Pjotr proposed libc
& friends. I understand libc & friends as
kernel+uclibc(+uclibc++)+busybox and probably building toolchains.

I'm agree with you. That's can be usefull for others project like the
i386-uclibc team, AGNULA/uDeMuDi and probably some companies.

As I proposed that can be an emdebian specific policy.
