You have to parse the Sources file to exclude packages that are not for your architecture. You must also exclude packages according to "Packages-arch-specific"[0]. I have scripts doing exactly that in the collab-qa svn repository[1], in debcluster/scripts/rebuild-archive/ (respectively grep-sources-arch.rb and pasfilter.rb). See debcluster/Notes for example usage.
