Correct.
curl | 7.11.0-4 | unstable | arm, s390, sparc
curl | 7.11.1-1 | unstable | source, alpha, hppa, i386, ia64,
m68k, mips, mipsel, powerpc
arm and sparc are in incoming.

all the signatures are manual although the builds themselves aren't. The
build logs deliberately say "maybe-successful" or "maybe-failed" instead
of "successful" or "failed".
