Yes, that's correct.  Users of Debian unstable are expected to
understand that packages are often not installable as soon as they hit
the archive, most frequently because of just this: when a source
package builds both arch any and arch all packages which depend on
each other, the arch all package will hit the archive immediately, and
be uninstallable, until the arch any package has been autobuilt.

This is part of using Debian unstable, and it is simply not a bug.  It
happens a half dozen times every week or more.

Because the amd64 buildd maintainers do not participate in the regular
buildd architecture, I cannot read the failed logs.  All I can see is
whether they have built it or not.

Life is rough, isn't it?  You just have to wait until the binary
package gets built and installed.  That's unstable.

For amd64, there isn't any way I know of because they don't
participate in the regular buildd logging system.

buildd.debian.org does provide access to the logs for everyone else.

http://people.debian.org/~igloo/status.php

provides a convenient way to query the buildd logs for all the archs
and many packages at once.
