Looks good, applied to git, thanks. It doesn't appear to do anything in Debian at present (build_arch, that is) or at least it's not documented to work, but doesn't appear to break anything. BTW, would it be helpful for you to be able to work on sbuild directly? You would be welcome to join (buildd-tools-devel on alioth). Regards, Roger -- .''`.
