The solution Sven has proposed can be improved, without all the mirror
bloat, I think. The sane thing to do would be for debootstrap to default
to what's in /etc/apt/sources.list when no mirror is given. This avoids
the logistical nightmare of having to make and update
$arch.ftp.debian.org foreach architecture. If you're using it in
sources.list, it has your architecture.
The thing is sources.list often contains things other than the debian
mirror and it may be tricky to figure out what is the debian mirror and
what is something else.
