AFAIK are the porters the building machines.
If the building fails it is a pitty.
Take a closer look to see what is wrong
and try to fix it.
Please don't restrict your sources to be build on other platforms.
It is IMO a backdoor to hide (build)problems.
Accept that there are other architectures and support them as good as possible.
Discriminating is not the way to go.
