Bug#728573: supercollider: FTBFS on sparc and ppc but built there in the past

[Dan S]

Thanks. As discussed previously on pkg-multimedia-maintainers, I
propose that we restrict archs for one package
"supercollider-supernova". The package is optional for users (it's a
non-default drop-in alternative to "supercollider-server") and there
is very little upstream support for getting it working across archs.
It uses some fancy coding and boost libs that I'm not familiar with,
and these are what incur these build fails. I know it would be great
to avoid having to special-case any archs, but I don't see where the
expertise will come from to do this, and supercollider is
fully-functional without that package.
