My solution handles that without any problem. I forgot to give
an example for this case. For my rebuild of libtool, I have at
the end of my script:
arch=()
for i in $(dpkg --print-foreign-architectures)
do
if dpkg -s libltdl-dev:$i >& /dev/null; then
arch+=$i
fi
done
md_build $arch
Also I forgot to say that my script won't install build dependencies
automatically. If there are missing build dependencies, debuild ends
with a meaningful message, telling what is missing.

Patches don't add log messages in general. I meant like what dch
does.
