It's not just build-essential that has to be cross-compilable. It's everything you need to build the packages in a debootstrappable (inc build-essential) image.That's actually at least 254 packages. And a quite a lot of those need perl or python to be multiarch aware in order to build.
Give us one example. (Of course we're interested in python, not perl.) -- Jakub Wilk
