After a couple more tweaks, the packaging in the above repo supports multiarch (so i386 and amd64 can be installed simultaneously) and patches the upstream build system to allow parallel builds.
It really does seem reasonable to have an amd64 package in debian so people can run mit-scheme programs that use heaps larger than possible on i386. I hope it would not be out of line to upload this to a DELAYED=15 queue? Unless someone objects, I'll do that shortly.
