Your patch does nothing except dropping the ":amd64" suffix. You could
just as well not use the suffix and use your system where you manually
enabled the foreign architecture.
I would have expected your patch to somehow add the foreign architecture
to the build chroot and figure it out from there.
As it stands, I don't see the point of this patch.
