No, it won't. It's no problem for a package if it fails to build on an
arch it was never built on before.
For a NM, without access to the Debian project machines to test the
package, the easiest way is to release the it with Arch: any, look at
the build logs and fix all errors (or, if that doesn't work, change the
Architecture: header).
Update: I've just tested the build on merulo.d.o (ia64), no problem
there. OTOH, you should really fix those warnings (the same ones you see
when compiling on i386).
