Currently, samba pulls its list of Linux architectures from the
type-handling package.  Can you get armhf added to the list of known archs
in that package, so we don't have to maintain the list by hand?

Ultimately, of course, we want to replace this list with 'linux-any' for the
architecture field; but until squeeze is released, I believe that's going to
break backporting, so Christian is probably not going to like that.
