Good. That behaviour is by design and not a bug.

Good.

This is not a bug. Architecture:all packages are *not* implicitly M-A:foreign.
See my other mail to this bug. If an Architecture:all package should be made
M-A:foreign, then file a bug against that package. The maintainer can then
decide whether that marking is correct or not. If in doubt, CC
debian-cross@lists.debian.org to get advice about whether marking a package as
M-A:foreign is correct or not.

Thanks!

cheers, josch
