It would work, but it's not exactly ideal for future updates,
particularly in stable...
fwiw, the auto-exception was for 24.1+1-1; -2 currently has no such
exception. The general policy thus far has been not to grant manual
unblocks for source packages which are new for wheezy, although we could
possibly be persuaded that there are cases where it makes sense.

My earlier remembering of one of the i386 buildds being a VM appears to
have been mistaken; the most obvious difference is that one is an amd64
host whereas the other is i386.
The buildd logs contain a list of all of the packages used during the
build. It's often worth comparing those between a failing and
successful build to see if there are any possibly relevant differences.
