Andi: are you using the edos-buildebcheck from the official 
edos-distcheck package? Or are you running your own variant of the
wrapper (addsources.py) ?

Even in the latter case I agree that we should fix that in
edos-builddebcheck (not edos-debcheck, as Andi has correctly remarked).
Is there a python library that does the architecture matching? We 
most certainly do not want to call dpkg-architecture on 15000 source
packages.
