With the applied check for debhelper, it should reduce the number of
warnings.
I think we should propose a change to policy, the current state of § 7.6
is not acceptable [1]. After the issue with the clean target is solved,
the whole thing should make much more sense. [2]

Footnotes:
[1] clean is defined as arch-dependent target of debian/rules;
Build-Depends-Indep does not have to be satisfied when clean is
called.
[2] And thus, this check should have no false positives, as the
remaining arch-dependent targets would be binary-arch and
build-arch. These should never be used in an arch: all package.
