FYI: Since there was a need for a soon-ish upload of gnudatalanguage
and nothing happened at
http://eigen.tuxfamily.org/bz/show_bug.cgi?id=1103 since I filed this
bug report, I've now uploaded gnudatalanguage with arm64 removed from
the Architecture list for now:

https://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/collab-maint/gnudatalanguage.git/commit/?id=638bc9c3be31a4e5bd747f6c0f985da1afbc26ba

In case you considered arm64 not being removed from the Architecture
list yes as a blocker for the removal of older arm64 binary packages
of gnudatalanguage: Now ANAIS is true in unstable and you can proceed.
