This pretty-much boils down the issue. dpkg needs to use a unique and
reliable internal represent
ion to this problem
than inventing a new set; and in general Debian likes to go for the
technically-best solutions even if it takes longer. (Multiarch in
general is an example of this).
However, equally, it's taken a really long time to get this far, and

and other outstanding issues such as
cross gobject-introspection. We've experimented on most of this in
Ubuntu with armhf and arm64 so (a select few of us) have a reasonable
idea of how it should work, but that knowledge now needs formalising
and documenting, and outstanding questions
that might make one conservative about this is that we
don't yet have a solution to the 'perl-module' problem of transitive
arch-dependencies (XS-module -> arch:all module -> XS module), but I
can't actually see why the above change would impede solutions to the
latter.
So I think I am suggesting that the entry "We propose that literals of
different namespaces can be mixed within a disjunction. Therefore, the
following would be legal:
Build-Depends foo [arch.i386 !profile.cross]"
Is changed to say that you can't do that, and have to do [i386]
[!
ample.
We're absolutely fine with the <> syntax, which is already implemented
(and to be honest I prefer the look of it in practice). Are you
proposing pkg as opposed to pkg ?
We can adjust the patches for that if so.

Anyway, what's the bug? Are packages that won't build with
"dpkg-buildpackage -j4" buggy, or is it a bug that man pages suggest
using "dpkg-buildpackage -j4" rather than

The 'gcc' binary package is built from the gcc-defaults source package. This is
a metapackage.
The compiler itself (lots of binary packages) is built from the gcc-4.9 source
package.
