I had a few thoughts:

If "1 other architecture" is the same for each package in the set,
just
replace it with the name of that architecture:

1 packages are failing on amd64 and i386

Add a title attribute on each instance of undefined architectures:

1 packages are failing on amd64 and <span title="i386 armel">2 other
architectures</span>

Add the concept of architecture groups, for example: 

 * FTBFS on armhf and all 32-bit architectures.
 * FTBFS on armhf and all 32-bit ARM architectures.
 * FTBFS on ppc64el and all 64-bit POWER architectures.

Advertise this via the debian-ports alias and DevNews. The alias spams
all the architecture-specific mailing lists. DevNews goes to d-d-a:
