OK, why not remove these binary packages to make Debian people happy,
and successively re-introduce them when they build properly. I assume
here that the binary packages does not need to go through the new queue
again (and that there will be no problems adding the architecture
support again, in case it is removed).

BTW: You can remove netspeed from the list, se bug #618745
