(Recording this information here for posterity.)
Looking at dpkg(1) it appears that the environment variable
DPKG_MAINTSCRIPT_ARCH will contain the appropriate string.
Well, it contains amd64 when $(dpkg-architecture -qDEB_HOST_GNU_CPU)
yield x86_64, but that can be worked around. The point is: it hold
a representation of the architecture the binary being installed was
built for.
