There were always missing many %{?_isa} in BuildRequires, I was filing many of
them, got some fixed.  But now it is even forbidden to use them:
        
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:Guidelines#BuildRequires_and_.25.7B_isa.7D

IMO it is because it was causing more harm than good due to rpm/yum/dnf never
properly supporting those:
        RFE: 'dnf builddep' should be able to extract the specfile from a 
.src.rpm and use it for the dependencies
        https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1210276

IIUC Fedora gave up on multi-arch building and you should use mock for that,
ISTM multi-arch is now officially supported only for installation.
