"mysterious" about checking buildd.debian.org (and calling it that is

People should just use

If we would choose to use the common names without DEB_HOST_ prefix
should dpkg-buildpackage then honor them if they are already set in

You sound like this would be the first miscompilation bug in gcc in a

at any time. They are usually not architecture-in
