because the master has nothing to do with the slave, for (a) remote
slave(s) it does not even know where this/they reside(s) ...

So one master and two architectures, somehow "combined"? That will bring
a few interesting challenges ...
(trivial would be [sid-amd64] and [sid-i386] as independent full distro
tests)

BTW, there are some arch:all packages with dependency-does-not-exist
there the dependecy is arch:i386 only
