Wait, our packages containing .cmo/.cmi/.cma usually are arch: any, take
for example -dev packages on non-native archs. So I think in practice
your case apply only to packages which are indeed arch:all, and indeed
we can't rely on binNMU for that. Nevertheless I think there are quite a
few among ours. Can you please provide a list?

Cheers.
