Well that infrastructure is not done by dpkg-genchanges and dpkg-buildpackage 
(unless I missed to see how) but it was tried to be done as good as possible 
by our rules targets. Is there a way to build just the binary-indep targets 
and deb packages on certain architectures so that the build process can exit 
gracefully ? What we need is from a single source package to produce native 
and native + indep packages depending on the architecture that source package 
being built.

If that is the case it should be tracked down.
