It does? How does that work for packages with only a minimal control
file that generate a full contol file during build? I see the Arch
check of the dsc file in line 742-484 but that is very unreliable.
Anything I missed?
I believe the dpkg behaviour to set "Architecture: any" for sources
that build arch dependent and independent packages (as opposed to
e.g. Architecture: all i386 powerpc) makes it impossible to reliably
decide if a package should be build for an arch.

Ok, slightly exagerated, but a lot of packages would get build by sbuild
wrongfully if it weren't for packages-arch-specific in wanna-build.
