Not that I'm aware of.

I usually check what others (or I previously) have done and a very simply
way is to inspect the SVN repository:

debian-med/trunk/packages $ grep "Architecture:" */trunk/debian/control | grep -vw -e all -e any | uniq
arb/trunk/debian/control:Architecture: amd64 i386 kfreebsd-i386 kfreebsd-amd64

I'm afraid you need to add kfreebsd-i386 in the list of positives if you
want to include it.
