For what it's worth, I looked over these changes, and they look good to
me as far as fixing the "foo:any" type of arch-qualified Build-Depends.

However, since dpkg and 'apt-get build-dep' already also support the
"foo:native" syntax of arch-qualified Build-Depends, and it comes in
super handy for preparing packages which can be cross-compiled, could
that be added in as well?

It looks like it'd be a pretty straightforward addition to the existing
pending changeset; I could prepare a branch if you like.
