Also, §7.1 specifies differently the architecture restrictions for
build relationship fields (Build-Depends, Build-Depends-Indep,
Build-Conflicts and Build-Conflicts-Indep) and binary relationship
fields. According to what is expected for Built-Using, §7.1 could be
updated as well.

Architecture restrictions do not make sense for Built-Using: either a
package was used to built the package or not. In case this differs
between architectures, each binary package has its own (different)
Built-Using list.

But that's not unlike Depends (or other binary relationship fields):
architecture restrictions are allowed in debian/control but not in
binary packages.

And indeed, dpkg-gencontrol does allow architecture restrictions in
Built-Using in debian/control.

Ah, right, architecture restrictions in d/control in the source package are okay. They just shouldn't be allowed in the binary control file (and also don't make sense there).
