Following this suggestion I've added a build listener displaying a
message every 10 minutes. I hesitated between the lyrics of "Stayin'
Alive" [1] and "Still Alive" [2], but I eventually settled for a simple
"Gradle is still running, please be patient".

I'm afraid this is not possible because every Gradle project do things
differently. But we can work around this by specifying the arch any/all
tasks in the override_dh_auto_build* targets. For openjfx I've done
something like this and it seems to work well:

    override_dh_auto_build-arch:
	dh_auto_build -- sdk -x javadoc -x src

    override_dh_auto_build-indep:
	dh_auto_build -- javadoc src
