Hi Maintainer

I've noticed some packages have used incorrect dpkg-architecture variables, e.g. DEB_BUILD_GNU_TYPE instead of DEB_HOST_MULTIARCH. This may build successfully on the maintainer's amd64 machine, but could FTBFS on i386 on the buildds.

It would be nice if Lintian could warn of possibly incorrect usage of dpkg-architecture variables before the initial upload.

Regards
Graham
